35th Anniversary Banner Brunch - May 10
Join us for a very special event--the 35th Anniversary Banner Brunch on May 10. Banner Brunch is the signature awards event for the Austin Chapter of the Association for Women in Communications (AWC), recognizing the most talented professional communicators in Austin, whose accomplishments have made a positive impact in the community and to the communications industry as a whole.
With a theme of “Leave Your Mark,” the 35th Anniversary event will bring together many of Austin’s foremost communications professionals and community leaders for a “homecoming” celebration highlighting the past, present and future of our organization.
The event will begin with entertainment by Austin singer and songwriter, Gina Chavez, a raffle and a silent auction featuring fabulous getaways, jewelry, spa packages, and date night packages from well-known businesses in Austin. Before brunch begins, capture the event by joining a friend for a pose at Banner Brunch’s first LIVE photo booth offered by Korey Howell Photography.
AWC is also proud to announce the morning’s keynote speaker, Cathy Bonner, founder of the Women’s Museum at Fair Park and Killcancer.org. You’ll be introduced to AWC’s outstanding communicators during the awards program and the event will be capped with a champagne toast.Please look for your invitation in the mail soon, printed courtesy of Offset Press.
