Join us on Armistice Day, November 11th, from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at the SOU Music Recital Hall for a tribute to beloved local activist Dot Fisher-Smith and a fundraiser benefiting two organizations close to her heart: KS Wild and Peace House.

The evening will feature stories, footage, and reflections on Dot's remarkable life and activism. We'll screen the newly released film The Outcast at Sanger Lake, which chronicles her extraordinary commitment to nonviolence following a harrowing near-death experience.
