Gala Committee
The Gala Committee is responsible for hosting the annual event for FERA. Our team is focused on organizing an engaging event to facilitate a feminist dialogue between students and faculty members and represent women and other gender minorities.
This year, we are hosting a launch party for FERA’s journal, Bloom and will have speakers who will be expanding on the prominent themes in Bloom.

Not Your Average Barbie
Join FERA for our 2022 annual gala, “Not Your Average Barbie: Perspectives on Gendered Socialization and Feminism”, which explores the role toys play in enforcing gender roles.This year’s Gala consists of two parts: a virtual art exhibit and speaker discussion which investigates and dismantles this socialization. Our exhibit goes live at midnight on March 4, followed by our speaker discussion at 7pm Eastern.

RIOT GRRRL
This year, our annual gala seeks to illuminate the feminist movement through the lens of the Riot Grrrl. Riot Grrrls were and are revolutionary leaders of their time, born from female bands who unabashedly created names for themselves amidst a male-dominated punk scene. With the Riot Grrrl at heart and leaders in mind, this year’s gala is an exhibition of female skill and strength.
