Prairie Lights Café

Please join us at our open mic night for Violence Against Women, with music, story, and poetry performances.

This will be a supportive space for individuals to share their concerns and experiences in the hopes of empowering ourselves to craft a change for women everywhere. This event is FREE and will be sponsored by the Rape Victim Advocacy Program, the Domestic Violence Intervention Program, the Monsoon United Asian Women of Iowa, and Iowa United Nations Association. All donations will be given to these organizations to expand their impact on improving violence against women.

Please note: We understand that this is a very serious and, at times, an emotionally painful topic to discuss. We will have advocates from RVAP and DVIP available during and after the event to process with any individuals that may become triggered or overwhelmed by this topic. Our hope is to create a space that is safe, intimate, and empowers us to discuss violence against women in a way that sparks change and hope for our future.
