About Us
Our Story
Having discovered for the first time and participated in IWD celebrations in 2017 & 2018, our Nashville Co-Chairs, Alexis and Liz, decided to take on the organization of the annual event going forward, seeking to be designated a Flagship International Women’s Day event, and partnering with likeminded allies across the spectrum.
They are joined by two new Co-Chairs for the 2021 event, Lauren Bailey and Lindsey Ross, in Cincinnati. With their combined superpowers, they are working diligently to bring their brand of free, flagship IWD events to cities across the US, starting with Cincinnati and Nashville with the goal of furthering the path toward gender parity.
International Women’s Day
Held each year on March 8th, it is a global celebration of the economic, cultural and political achievements of women and calls the world to action in prioritizing and achieving gender parity.
The first ever International Women’s Day was held in 1911 across several European countries. Today, it is celebrated everywhere.
