Join us as Women of Winchester returns after our summer break for an inspiring afternoon of connection, learning, and community.

Whether you're a business owner, nonprofit leader, professional, entrepreneur, or simply looking to meet other incredible women in our region, you'll find a welcoming community waiting for you.

Each month, Women of Winchester brings together women from across the Shenandoah Valley to build meaningful relationships, support local nonprofits, grow professionally, and leave feeling encouraged and empowered.

We believe collaboration is stronger than competition, and that when women support one another, amazing things happen.
