Join us for a fantastic evening telling the stories of the women who shaped, and saved, the Central Coast! We’ll hear from the wonderful Kathryn McKenzie and Dr. Stephen Palumbi about women politicians, scientists, and changemakers who made this special place what it is today, both in habitats and people. Topics include Julia Platt, PG’s first woman mayor and the reason behind much of our marine conservation work, Minnie Coyle, Monterey's first and only woman mayor, Ruth Andresen, a tireless volunteer and activist in Salinas, and Julie Packard, founder of the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

With a generous sponsorship by Hops & Fog and a look into the deep history of women’s impacts on our county, the night should be a fun one and audiences should leave feeling knowledgeable and energized!
