This special online event, made possible thanks to funding from Women NSW, will be held on Friday, October 29 from 5.30pm to 7.30pm on Zoom.
There will be music provided by local musicians, a guest speaker, Arlia Fleming, and a fun night of trivia, all hosted by the fabulous Miss Betty Confetti.
"This event will showcase the power, strength and admiration I have for all women," Miss Betty Confetti said.
"I wanted to host this amazing event to thank all the fabulous women who have shaped me into the person I am today, and I encourage all young, mature and transitioning women to be their authentic and unapologetic selves at this safe and fun event."
