Description

Join us for the 35th Annual ATHENA & Women of Accomplishment Award Reception at the Egyptian Theatre, where we will celebrate and honor this year's ATHENA Award finalists and Women of Accomplishment honorees. The event begins with a cocktail hour at 6:30pm, followed by the program at 7:15pm. A cash bar will be available.

Early bird tickets will be available for $15 through October 4th. Regular tickets are $25. Walk-up tickets will be available.

The ATHENA Award is an international program recognizing women who excel in their profession, volunteer in their community, and serve as mentors or role models, helping other women reach their leadership potential. A Woman of Accomplishment is retired, made a lasting impact on her previous career, and remains dedicated to giving back to her community. The honor started within the DeKalb Chamber of Commerce to recognize influential women no longer working.

Congratulations ATHENA Award Finalists!
