“Women Celebrating Women began as a way to showcase a Front Royal jewelery artist’s work and grew to a regular get together honoring the talents and work of a new woman each month.” said Marcy McCann author of Chelsea’s Tree and the group’s founder. Originally planned to run for six months the group proved so successful that it is moving into a new year with no end in sight.
Marquetta Mitchell at WCW in December 2009
December’s woman of the evening was Marquetta Mitchell a Strasburg, Virginia investment representative who shared about her early years going to segregated schools in an otherwise integrated community. She went on to explain how her early professional life led to Social work but transitioned into financial planning with Edwards Jones. Many in attendance that evening were effected by her emotional story of life’s travels and the “blessings” she related about living in her treasured home town.
Guests bring a snack to share while coffee, tea, and cake are provided by McCann. All women are welcome to attend at 6:00 PM the first Sunday of each month. The group meets at 234 West King Street in Strasburg at the office building of LtdPrints.com. Call 540-465-3878 or email Marcy@LtdPrints.com for further information.
