Women Making History!
We went to the Mayflower Hotel for the National Women's History Museum's Women Making History Gala. We snapped the honorees: former professional ballerina and Swan Dreams Project founder Aesha Ash, world-renowned cellist Christine Walevska, and former Secretary of Agriculture Ann Veneman.
The event illuminated the indispensable contributions that women make in many industries. Here, NWHM President Joan Bradley Wages joins Ben Chevat, who wrote the legislation for the museum, and Board Member Joan Walker.
Guests enjoyed a VIP reception before the program. Here, Hush Blackwell attorney Singleton McAllister, Museum Board Chair Susan Whiting, and Earth Friendly Products' Vivian Panou.
There was an open bar and delicious appetizers, such as chicken curry skewers and crab cakes. Here, Bogart Associates' Jennifer Bogart, Bridgman Communications' Georgia Graves, and United Airlines' Patty Frissora.
NWHM's director of development Laura Rheintgen and communications manager Melissa Williams surround museum consultant Becky Schergens.
