Ehris and Velya Urban, of The Grounded Goodwife, are returning to deliver another entertaining and informative 'Herstory Unsanitized' historical program! This time they will explore the Tudor era in a two-part series: Beneath Tudor Bedsheets (March 23) and Frilled to Meet You (April 13). People are captivated by the Tudor era and King Henry VIII's wed, bed, and behead philosophy. But, are they aware that despite the fact that this era (1485 - 1603) saw two queens ruling the throne, women were raised to serve and obey men? Join us, virtually or in-person, for this engaging program in honor of Women's History Month on Thursday, March 23 at 6 PM. As both Ehris and Velya now reside in Mexico, this program will be delivered via Zoom. To participate from your home, register using the button below to receive the special Zoom link for viewing.
