We Celebrated Our 25th Anniversary!!! Gainesville Area NOW has been fighting for women's rights since 1982. Our 25th Anniversary Banquet & Silent Auction was a huge success! Over 60 attendees enjoyed delicious food, listened to some awesome speakers, enjoyed the activist slide-show, tapped our toes along with Lars Din, and won fabulous items in the silent auction. We honored long-time Gainesville Feminist Jenny Brown and her speech was inspiring!
