International Women’s Day is in March - and here in Chattanooga, a celebration for the arts will honor women of all nationalities and support a cause.

Rhyme ‘N Chatt and Culture Chatt are organizing the celebration - set for Friday evening, March 8th at Chattanooga Theatre Centre.

Part of the proceeds will support Love’s Arm, a local nonprofit assisting survivors of trafficking, prostitution and addiction.

Last week, we mentioned the celebration’s organizers are seeking a culturally diverse group of male artists and volunteers to join them in presenting the event.

Jaime Kerns is with Culture Chatt.

Neelanjan Patri is with Rhyme ‘N Chatt.

Inza Hagins-Dyer is with Love’s Arm.
