| Almost 100 years after the founding of Hull House a center for theory and practice in education, public policy, labor organizing, art, and a host of social justice concerns by Nobel-peace prize winning Jane Addams, the Full Circle project ended with a simple but significant performance. In the manner of turn-of-the-century Hull House, when agendas for change and visions of a better future were part of each evening's meal, fourteen impressive international women activists were invited to dinner on September 30th. The dinner was the opportunity them to participate in a work of art by actively envisioning the future within the context of a place rich with historical significance for women and for a changing society. The documentary video by Michelle Baugh captures this memorable dinner, which included such international guests as Gloria Steinem, Dolores Huerta, Susan Faludi, Nawal El Sadawi, Susan Grode, Myrna Cunningham, DaVecki Jain, Hyung-Kyung Chung, Wilma Mankiller, Johnetta Cole, and Anita Hill.
