The Voices of Women Festival is Coming to Eccles Theater’s McCarthey Plaza

The Voices of Women Festival is coming to Eccles Theater’s McCarthey Plaza on November 14–15, inviting the public to a free and vibrant festival honoring Utah’s incredible women, women’s organizations and Utah suffragist heroes.
