Vessel: National Women's Health Week Documentary Screening at the Al Whittle
May 13, 2026 (7:00 pm)
Location: Al Whittle Theatre
A fearless sea captain, Dr. Rebecca Gomperts, sails a ship through loopholes in international law, providing abortions on the high seas, and leaving in her wake a network of emboldened activists who trust women to handle abortion on their own terms.
Celebrate National Women’s Health Week with the ASU at the Al Whittle! Come see the powerful documentary "Vessel" followed by an inclusive, important discussion about abortion access and other realities of reproductive healthcare facilitated by Sophia Bush Anderson.
Throughout the evening you’ll hear from Nova Scotia’s ROSE Clinic, Shannon Hardy of Abortion Support Services Atlantic, and Paige Moreth of the Acadia Student's Union SHRC. Free SHRC resources on reproductive health and abortion will be available throughout the event.
