The Inaugural 'Wisdom of Warriors' - Mental Health Matters Gala was held 22/02/20 @ The Newsagency.  In all accounts, it was outstanding!  The evening was in abundance of creativity, thought provoking and inspiring discussion, as well as connection, kindness and love.  Our MC provided meticulous leadership and an unshakable foundation for the event, while the artists and panel members generated much allowance for hearts to dive deep and dance with possibilities.  The audience brought with them an offering of support, openness and gratitude.  We are so pleased to have shared in such a wonderful initiation of 'Wisdom of Warriors' - Mental Health Matters Gala.

 

Our next Gala is scheduled for May 2020.  For regular updates please follow our fb page or check in here on our events page.  If you would like to inquire about booking a 'Wisdom of Warriors' event, please complete the form below.
