Teens! Come rage with the grannies and make posters for Earth Month! Drop-in and learn a little bit about this history of the qathet chapter of these hat wearing iconoclasts. Supplies provided. Saturday April 16th, 1-2:30 pm in the Library’s First Credit Community Room. For more information contact Teen Services Coordinator, Mel Edgar at edgar@prpl.ca More about the Raging Grannies: The Raging Grannies were started in Victoria, BC by a group of wise women elders who wanted to promote social justice, economic equality, and global peace. The goal of the Raging Grannies is to raise public awareness by using the medium of song and humour in the tradition of street theatre. Wearing their long skirts, shawls, and their outrageous hats while singing their satirical songs, they replace the image of “nice little old ladies” with the reality of feisty, outrageous older women.
