Simmering Stories, Weaving Wisdom:
Traditioning PANAAWTM into the Futures
This year marks our 40th anniversary. This milestone event will take place from March 27-30, 2025, at Columbia Theological Seminary in Decatur, GA.
Our theme for this 40th-anniversary celebration, "Simmering Stories, Weaving Wisdom: Traditioning PANAAWTM into the Futures," highlights storytelling as a vital means of passing down wisdom across generations. We aim to honor our evolution—from a gathering of support into a source of belonging and empowerment—celebrating our collective flourishing. Through storytelling, arts, and shared histories, we will "stitch together" our past while envisioning a thriving future for PANAAWTM, honoring both our embodied practices and interracial solidarity.
