DESCRIPTION:An Evening with special guest Ann Wright - Breaking the Siege of Gaza: A 
 Fundraiser for the 2018 Freedom Flotilla\n\nFriday February 23rd, 6-9PM, 
 (doors open at 5:30)\n\nFormer Army Colonel and US Diplomat Ann Wright 
 comes to Santa Cruz on Friday, February 23rd to raise funds for the 2018 
 Freedom Flotilla, a group of international boats set to sail this summer to 
 Gaza to bring much needed aid and supplies.  She will give an update on 
 deteriorating conditions in Gaza, and the continued efforts to challenge 
 Israel’s occupation of Gaza and the West Bank.\n\nAnn resigned from the 
 US Diplomatic Corps in March of 2003 in protest of the US invasion of Iraq. 
  She has since become an outstanding proponent for peace in our world, and 
 a model of non-violent resistance and change.  She has sailed on three of 
 the prior Gaza Flotillas, including the most recent 2016 Women’s Boat to 
 Gaza. \n\nA fundraiser for the upcoming 2018 Gaza Freedom Flotilla, this 
 celebration of the power of nonviolence and the resolve of peacemakers 
 features middle eastern food and music, a short film about Gaza, and a 
 chance to meet Ann and other past Flotilla participants. Doors open at 
 5:30, refreshments from 6PM, program begins at 7PM. All are welcome with a 
 sliding scale admission from $15 to $100. (no one turned away for lack of 
 funds.) To make a direct contribution:
