Aviatra Accelerators, a nonprofit entrepreneurial accelerator for women-owned businesses, will host its annual Galentine’s Gala Fashion Show and Fundraiser on Feb. 12.

Occurring the day before Valentine’s Day, the event will offer an opportunity for local women entrepreneurs to connect, fundraise and enjoy a fashion show from local woman-owned boutiques.

“The Galentine’s Gala celebrates friendship, community and the remarkable women entrepreneurs who are shaping our region,” said Jill Morenz, president and CEO of Aviatra Accelerators in a press release. “Through an evening of fun, fashion and connection, we are proud to shine a spotlight on the women entrepreneurs who are building financial independence, pursuing their goals and creating meaningful impact across our region.”

Fashion from Me by Lee, Handzy Shop & Studio, Lusheous Collection and Inspired Fashion will all be featured in the fashion show. Northern Kentucky Community Action Commission Executive Director Catrena Bowman will serve as the event’s emcee.

The event will take place at the Woodward Theater in Over-the-Rhine. You can learn more about the event and purchase tickets at aviatraaccelerators.org/gala.
