“Be Bold for Change” is the theme of a masquerade gala to celebrate International Women’s Day, March 9 at the Ciociaro Club.

Hosted by the campus Womyn’s Centre, the event will feature a multi-course meal and a Mardi Gras party as well as a panel of speakers discussing gender inclusivity within the workplace.

“Advancing the rights of women and minorities is still a pressing issue,” says Sarah Noureddine, the centre’s co-ordinator. “This event will allow us to create an empowering, educational environment where social change and networking can take place.”

Tickets are $50 each or $450 for a table of 10, available from the Womyn’s Centre in room 291 of the CAW Student Centre, or online at http://iwdgala.brownpapertickets.com/.
