Cole Haan | Sunday Paper
In honor of Women’s History Month, we are celebrating extraordinary stories told by extraordinary storytellers.
Throughout the entire month of March, in partnership with Maria Shriver’s Sunday Paper, we are highlighting four visionary
multimedia artists who have devoted their lives to creating and cultivating community, weaving together past, present,
and future generations of women through their chosen art forms, while strengthening our connections to each other and
humanity as a whole. Join us every Sunday as we feature a new storyteller and highlight the vital role they play in shaping the world with their artistry.
