an impromptu working party made up of wwp members does some property maintenance at the Nurtury - our Laurentian club house  		We have a growing Montreal-based membership that meets on a bi-monthly basis, and is devoted to exploring how philosophy can change our lives. We use a variety of conversational forms and exercises to work ideas that have piqued the interest of our members.  Among the areas we have touched upon are:
  • Women and obedience
  • Gertrude Stein's 'A rose is a rose is a rose...'
  • The joys of carol singing
  • The Philosophy for Children (P4C) programme
  • Sketching character through sport
  • Lao Tsu's 'actionless action'
  • Transcendence through Art
  • Approaches to looking at photographs
  • Judy Chicago's 'The Dinner Party'
  • Girl's and women's education
  • What does it mean to participate?
  • The mind-body connection and meditative practices
  • Making heraldry work for women
  • The Invisible Matron
  • Women's Words : A look at women's poetry
  • Debating "The Bitch" v "The Good Girl"
  • Women and Anger 
Coming up this Winter and Spring 2012:
  • Conversation and the Question (Feb 9th)
  • Women Making Waves (March 8th, International Women's Day)
  • The Gift: The Art of Giving and Taking (April 12th)
