Shades of Beauty Summit

The Augustana offices of Student Inclusion and Diversity and Student Life will sponsor the annual Shades of Beauty Summit.

The summit is a gathering of women to share, discover and celebrate their beauty. The goal is to provide an event that will reach past cultural differences, uniting women and empowering them to love who they are, the way that they are. 

Admission is free but registration is required.

The EmpowHer Experience with community women leaders will take place from 6:30-7:30 p.m., followed by a CelebratHer Party with a DJ, photo booth, dessert bars and Her Expo from 7:30-9:30.

A diverse group of women leaders will share their stories and tools. Panelists include:
