Literary Salons had a major role in political, social, & artistic movements throughout history. Salons were a way for women to make space for themselves in moments and movements when their voices were undervalued. They were a catalyst for the Harlem Renaissance, the Modernist movement, Liberalism, German Romanticism, and more.
In a time for community and action, Expand the Canon is bringing Literary Salons back to celebrate Women’s History Month and give people a chance to chat, drink, and connect with other artists. Expand the Canon invites artists of all kinds to join us for a Literary Salon to celebrate Women’s History Month on March 22nd from 3-6pm at Gallery 198 (198 24th St, Brooklyn).
We’ll be joined on March 22nd

Women’s History Month Podcasts throughout the month of March!
Playwright Feature: Georgia Douglas Johnson
Georgia Douglas Johnson hosted the famous “S Street Salon“ at her house in Washington D.C. in the 1920-30’s. Here many Harlem artists, philosophers, thinkers, and movers gathered. It was a space where black women came together to support each other as writers/activists, including many many ETC playwrights. Read her play Plumes (1927) on the 2024 List.
