The 17th Annual Women in the Arts and Business Luncheon is coming to you — virtually — from your own homes!

Join us for a live-streamed panel discussion with business leaders and performing artists who are “paving the way” in the Atlanta community.

As an added twist this year, you can have a gourmet lunch (with a personal bottle of Prosecco!) and swag delivered right to your door!

This year’s theme: Dynamic Journeys: Paving the Way.

Panelists will discuss relevant issues facing Atlanta’s business and arts communities including cultural value shifts, life/work balance, how the arts and business ecology are evolving, and the place for arts in our community’s future.

This year’s event will honor Sonya Halpern (Principal, WIAT Consulting) and Ariel Fristoe (Artistic Director of Out of Hand Theater), for their contributions to the arts and economic development in Atlanta.

Panelists include: Terry Burrell (Broadway and Atlanta actress and writer), Susana Maria Chavez (Executive Vice President, Parking Company of America, Inc.), Geneva Gross (Vice President, Customer Experience, Call One, Inc.), and Christina Smith (Principal Flute, Atlanta Symphony Orchestra). The panel will be moderated by Synchronicity Theatre’s Producing Artistic Director Rachel May.

Register for the event here!

The networking component, one of the key opportunities the event has come to be known for, will be in the form of breakout sessions, and will be an interactive element offered during the event.

Bid on a variety of new experiences, swag packages, and more.

Helpful hint: our auction site will require you to register before you can bid, so click the "Register as a bidder" option before you start browsing!
