Room Full of Sisters celebrates a local legacy

Central New York is a region that has a rich legacy of important women. From the birthplace of the suffrage movement in Seneca Falls to Underground Railroad “conductor” Harriet Tubman, many women have come through the area on their way to making history.

This weekend, history will continue when sisters in spirit come from all over to fill a room with respect and admiration. Entering its 14th year, the annual Room Full of Sisters luncheon combines music, dance and fellowship in a celebration of all things female.

Taking place tomorrow at Auburn's Holiday Inn, the gathering will feature special guest harpist Ani Williams, who has just finished a European tour, and Grammy-winning singer and song writer Joanne Shenandoah.
