A conversation series with
creative ladies in St. Pete, Florida

Female creatives are stronger together! Our free monthly salon night hosts small groups of creative women for casual conversations in an intimate wine-fueled setting. Topics vary by month, and we'll cover a diverse list of subjects relating to creativity, business, and life. If you're a female creative and you'd like to join us, sign up for our mailing list here. All venues and partner businesses are female owned or operated. If you'd like to host us in your space, partner with us, or lead a discussion, please reach out. — Follow us! Instagram & Facebook

Jessica Walsh, of &Walsh, started Ladies, Wine & Design in New York as an initiative to foster female creativity. Only a tiny percent of creative directors are women and she believes we can change that through mentorship and championing each other's work. We couldn't agree more.

Numbers show that there's a very small percentage of women in creative leadership roles. However, we find the people we're inspired by most are often other talented females. Here are a few local ladies we have admired, worked with, or had our eye on! Email us if you want to nominate someone for this list.
