TPT - Twin Cities PBS WOB viewing party - an inspirational evening

March 22, 2018  /  Maxine Davis

On March 20, 2018 TPT - Twin Cities PBS hosted a 'Women Outward Bound' viewing party at their studios during the LIVE broadcast. The whole team behind the 'Women Outward Bound' documentary was there, director Maxine Davis, cinematographer/editor Nick Clausen and producer/writer Melody Gilbert and a couple of the women who participated in the first all-women OB in 1965.

Here are some pics from the event:

A big thank you to TPT for hosting the party, to American Public Television for distributing WOB and bringing it to you, to everyone who came to the party, to everyone who keeps supporting the documentary!
