Coming September 18th and 19th, 2009 BOLD Atlanta Events!

BOLD (Birth On Labor Day) is a global arts-based movement inspiring communities to create childbirth choices that work for mothers.

************

As we make strides to improve our state's maternity care system, making it more mother-friendly, we want everyone to know we value our mothers and our children. This is just another step we are taking . . . 

For the best price and to help us prepare for this event to serve you better - order your tickets online - prices slightly higher at the door. 

 Also if you would like to attend but need a discount please check our list of Volunteer duties and what perks come with volunteering

Don't forget to let your BOLD Thoughts be heard! We have been getting some lovely messages for the playbill. Want to give a Cast member a message or inspire your clients or just speak your mind about your birth or birth in general? Add a BOLD Thought!

This year we will have a table or two that will have a few activities set up for children to do crafts, coloring and such and hope to have a small rug area for them to play. Young children in arms/slings are welcome into all events. Toddlers and above may find the Film, Red tent and performance very hard to sit through. So we reccomend bringing someone to help with them while you are in events.
