Being the Only Woman in the Room requires tenacity, intention, courage, resiliency, and fearlessness. This season of The Marilyn K. Glick Women's Enrichment Series celebrates women who possess the qualities necessary not only create their own "seat at the table", but also to make room for, and encourage, other women to use their skills and talents to shine.
"My mother was a lifelong learner who valued family, education, hard work, and philanthropy," says Marianne Glick of her mother, Marilyn K. Glick, whom the Women’s Enrichment Series honors. "Supporting dialogue on topics which lift women from all walks of life is not only important — it's essential to the vitality of our community.”
