Before the screening of the film our discussion will be centered around the historical context of the contributions made by Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, and Mary Jackson who are depicted in the film “Hidden Figures”.

We will dive into the personal stories of overcoming barriers and achieving success in STEM fields, current initiatives and programs aimed at supporting women in STEM and strategies for creating more inclusive and supportive environments in STEM workplaces and educational institutions for women who want to pursue this career.

Complimentary entry and bites!
