Women of Hope Leadership Workshop is moving to April 10, 2027
Evansville Arts Coalition will be pleased to host national speaker and author, L. C. Young, who will present Women of Hope Leadership on Saturday, April 10 from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at Evansville Art Center.
We have been so encouraged by the interest and conversations surrounding our upcoming Women of Hope event with national speaker and author LC Young.
With that interest in mind, along with some unexpected health considerations and the timing of our fall schedule, we have made the decision to move Women of Hope to April 2027.
We want to give this event, and LC’s important message, the time and attention it deserves. Moving to spring allows us to build on the interest already shown, broaden our community outreach, and create the meaningful experience we originally envisioned.
We are grateful to LC for her flexibility and to everyone who has already reached out, shared the event, and supported what we are creating together.
Women of Hope is not going away. We’re simply giving it a little more room to grow.
Join us for an empowering experience in April designed for girls and women from 6th grade through adulthood. Together, we’ll explore confidence, communication, personal strengths, goal setting, and what it means to become a leader in your own life.
Women of Hope Leadership is more than a workshop. It is an opportunity, through meaningful conversation, reflection, and engaging literacy-based activities, to recognize the strength, voice, and potential already within you.
Lyssa Lovejoy, EAC President has intentionally invited L. C. Young, founder of IAMGEHO, an organization working with literacy and disparity, to bring an experienced and credible voice to the conversation about how literacy, communication, confidence, and leadership can create opportunity and strengthen our communities.
This workshop is also about rediscovering the incredible resource we have in our libraries. Literacy is a gift. It gives us the ability to learn, communicate, tell our stories, advocate for ourselves and others and imagine possibilities beyond what we may see today. We want to use that gift to uplift women and girls while bringing people together in a space built for learning and connection.
National Speaker and Author L. C Young

It begins with believing you have something worth contributing.
The cost for this workshop will include all materials and snacks. Watch for registration information coming at a later date..
