Don’t Miss a Wonderful Women’s Event

Valentine’s Day and Galentine’s Day have both passed. But there’s still a wonderful way to spend the day with your gal pals tomorrow. You can attend a Women’s Show “chick”-full of shopping, fashion, food, health, beauty, fun, and surprises!

Ready for the ultimate gals’ get-together? It’s happening Saturday, February 18, from 8 am to 4 pm at the Ozark Empire Fairgrounds & Event Center in Springfield, Mo. The 2nd annual KY3 Women’s Show is brought to you by sponsor Convoy Women, a group of advocates for the women and girls who Convoy of Hope serves. Whether through hosting an event, raising support, or sharing on social media, the organization stands up for marginalized women around the world. Its mission is to empower women and girls to live independent lives free from the grip of poverty. Your MC for the day will be Alyssa Kelly, a co-host and producer of Springfield station KY3 TV’s lifestyle and entertainment show, “The Place.”

Discover demos on an array of topics. Make time for a makeup demo, to get pro tips and tricks on foundation application, “eye” lighting, and more. Is your current hairstyle a “don’t?” Discover a new “do” for your ‘do with a hair styling demo. Get cookin’ with 7 different demos by area chefs on The Cooking Stage, located in the East Hall. Learn “mo” about sushi from Tommie Baker of MoMo Sushi & Grill. Or go rogue and get tips from Chef Jeff, The Rogue Chef, and 5 others.

Take charge of your health by listening to seminars on important women’s wellness issues, including breast and cervical cancer. Peruse pretty products from all kinds of businesses. Get clued in on the latest looks with a fabulous fashion show, plus much more galore in store! You can even enjoy free sweet treat samples while they last or treat yourself to a bit of bubbly by buying a bevvie from the mimosa bar.

And be sure to register for a chance to win a night out and a $500 shopping spree. You and 9 female friends could enjoy an AR Workshop Party for 10 that includes one DIY wood project for each of you, plus a shareable charcuterie table with hot dip. Hot damn!  

AR Workshop is a boutique DIY studio franchise started by designers Maureen Anders and Adria Ruff, who first founded Anders Ruff, an all-encompassing design company. There’s no need for an advanced ticket – they’re available on the day of the show. Your $5 per person ticket includes free parking. Come join the fun. The Women’s Show is a can’t-miss for every Miss, Mrs., or Ms.! For hundreds more events, visit Missouri Life’s Event Calendar.
