March is Women’s History Month and March 8th was International Women’s Day, a time for hope, activism and personal empowerment. Since 82% of the female population will go on to have children, events like these must also mark the value and importance of mothers and the work they do.

Power babes from three different states met for three hours to brainstorm how every person can feel empowered to be an activist in their workplace, home and life. Thanks to Gymboree, we are able to get the word out. (Gymboree makes our current pop-up exhibit possible in NYC)

Kelly LeBrock says ‘Don’t hate me because I’m beautiful’. Remember that ad? She visited the museum this week thanks to new friend Donnetta Campbell, of The Barnyard Group. We ordered up a gorgeous vegetarian lunch from Candle Cafe and got down to business, talking M.O.M. and more.
