We are excited to announce “Reimagining the Script“, an event that explores how women in male-dominated professions—particularly STEM—are portrayed on screen.
Media shapes how we see the world — and the chronic underrepresentation of women in STEM and other fields on screen reinforces outdated stereotypes and discourages women from pursuing these paths.
Film Screening: Midwest premiere of short films using humor to highlight universal workplace challenges faced by women in STEM.
In-Person Director & Expert Panel: Join filmmakers Jessica McGaugh and Sheila Schroeder and other industry experts for a conversation on how storytelling shapes perception — and what it would take to more accurately reflect women’s contributions and capabilities on screen.
Networking: Enjoy light refreshments and conversation with fellow attendees.
Two dates, two locations — choose the one that works for you: 📍 Saturday, October 3 | Columbia College Chicago | 2–4 PM | Register here. 📍 Sunday, October 4 | College of DuPage | 2–4 PM | Register here.
Join us to laugh, learn, connect and inspire change!
