Tina
We were pleased to feature the work of three organizations that offer support to women coming out of crisis for this meeting of Community Leaders Network. We are grateful to The Pearl for their continued support of this program.
Kimberly Akimbo
In the show, 15-year-old Kimberly is battling so many forces in life, a terminal illness, an alcoholic father, and the general feelings of not fitting in. Our featured guests included organizations that are all about finding community and finding ways to support one another when things get tough..
The Infinite
In our first Community Leaders Network held at the newly unveiled, Blume Studios, the Community Leaders Network for Space Explorers: The Infinite featured our community partners at The Dottie Rose Foundation.
The Lion King
Leaning into the theme of food scarcity, which is so prevalent in the Lion King, we featured three incredible community partners doing the work to address the issue of food insecurity in Charlotte. Once again, we are grateful for our friends at Atrium’s The Pearl STEM Lab for their support of this event.
Back to the Future
In the spirit of technology, entrepreneurship, and innovation, this Community Leaders Network featured presentations by Do Greater Charlotte and the STEM Innovation Lab at The Pearl. The STEM Innovation Lab also generously sponsored this event.
Message in a Bottle
This beautiful piece of dance theater depicting the story of a family in crisis after their village comes under attack was perfect for a Community Leaders Network featuring community partners who serve the refugee community in Charlotte. Thank you to International House, Refugee Support Services, and ourBridge for Kids for making this such an incredible event. A generous donation by our friends at LendingTree Foundation made this event possible.
