Fuel the Sisterhood
Woven is independent and community-backed. Every membership keeps the stories free to read — and weaves the path to our first global Gathering.
The Horizon
The Gathering · July 2028
In July 2028, the sisterhood meets in person — a celebration of Cabo Verdean and diaspora women storytellers, artists, entrepreneurs and advocates. Every tier of membership is a thread in that fabric: patronage today becomes the stage, the microphones and the open doors of 2028.
