What It Takes
Tough woman…kind heart…animals…hard work…sacrifices…triumphs…you'll find the sentiment in any self-respecting western movie, often with the oh-so predictable happy ending to boot. Here to dispel some myths, these artist ranch women share how they really do it, persevering, persisting, and perspiring, and what it really means to make a life on the land today. Witty wordsmith Patricia Frolander, razor-sharp rhymer Annie Mackenzie, savvy songstress Lara Manzanares, and perspicacious performer Jessie Veeder take the stage to set the record straight about what it takes.
