On March 8th, the Athenaeum will host local female-led, Fierce Futures CIC who are putting on a a girl-powered celebration that you won’t want to miss, on International Women’s Day. And what better place to do it, than at the Liverpool Athenaeum – the city’s exclusive – and historic venue – which was once a gentleman’s club, but now welcomes members of all genders and walks of life.
The celebration will be in two parts, with the first activity completely FREE – with a glass of bubbly, and a tour included!
From 5:30 to 7pm, the doors to The Athenaeum will be opened for members of the public to enjoy a FREE guided tour of the stunning venue – and a complimentary glass of bubbly in the breathtaking library.
Guests will have the opportunity to network and chat with the club members and the friendly team of staff; getting a taste of what it feels like to be a member. But be quick – these FREE tickets are limited, and they are going fast. Registration is essential.
Later on, get ready for drinks, posh bites and entertainment, from some very special guests at the ‘evening do’ coined as a ‘Celebration of Liverpool Women’.
Early bird tickets are on sale now – a steal at just £20 – but only until 15th February.
There are now only a small number of early bird tickets left. Once they’re gone, they’re gone…. they will automatically increase to £30 per head on February 15th and £35 per head on 1st March.
This celebration marks the launch of a brand new programme of activities organised by local, female-focussed non-profit organisation. Fierce Futures, whose mission is to “empower women to forge fierce futures through creativity, self-expression, and learning”. They will be sharing more on the programme of FREE activities during the event, but promise ‘creative workshops, exclusive learning experiences, and one-to-one mentorship programs’
The programme will be open to local women who feel they’ve been held back by low self-esteem or life experiences.
Anna Grace Du Noyer, who is the founder of Fierce Futures, will be speaking during the evening, as part of a Q&A panel of amazing local women. The theme of discussion is breaking down barriers, and overcoming difficult experiences, leading to personal fulfilment. And trust us, you won’t want to miss Anna’s story of remarkable resilience and inspiring authenticity – which anyone who has read her harrowingly candid trauma healing blog will will already know.
She said “I feel passionately about creating opportunities for women raise their aspirations, find their fierce and live happy and fulfilled lives. Because of my own lived experience – and that of our Fierce Futures team – we feel particularly driven to engage victims of sexual violence and abuse in our program of creative, educational and self-esteem building activities.
We also encourage women with lived experience of trauma (of any kind) to get in touch and tell us if there are any specific activities they feel would like to access, nut haven’t been able to – for any reason – cost, location or technology barriers for example. We will do our best to cater for diverse range of interests and needs”
On the big night, at The Athenaeum, club member Anna, also reveals guests can expect a top secret announcement from an unnamed special guest. The only information released so far is that ticket holders will be be the first to hear about a groundbreaking event, right here in Liverpool, this Summer.
A source close to the event let slip “this is going to be something Liverpool hasn’t seen before… it will be a big boost for local people and businesses, creative communities – let’s just say, it’s going to be the perfect antidote to the post-Eurovision blues.”
Mysterious! So grab your tickets and your gal pals for a night of celebration, inspiration, and feeling fierce.
