SPRING 2026 EVENT THEME:​

Creativity as a Calling​​

​

Our keynote speakers from the Museum of the Bible led guests through an immersive experience. By examining female figures in the Bible, we explored how to express God-given creativity and innovation to transform our workplaces and communities.​

​

The evening included a musical performance by award-winning singer Kendra Johnson, and a ballet performance by dancers from the Metropolitan Ballet Theater and Academy.

Flourish is brought to you by three women-led organizations: Cornerstone for Women Leaders, Young Consulting Services, and Apply It Consulting, LLC. Together, we have created a space where leadership, faith, and community intersect.​
