Join us for our Annual Fundraiser on September 17, 2026 Brings Together Community Supporters for a celebratory evening with Dinner, Networking, and Live Music on the Waterfront.

Guests will enjoy an evening of dinner, networking, and waterfront views, along with exciting raffle prizes. The event will feature live music from Mesha Steele, and heartfelt remarks from mentors and mentees about the growth, connection, and success they've built together.
“Celebrating Our Mentors is more than a fundraiser. It's a celebration of the relationships that change lives.&nbsp; As women continue to struggle in low-paying jobs, demand for these connections continues to rise, and expanding access to mentorship and career support has never been more important. Together, we can ensure more women have the opportunity to build stable careers and brighter futures for themselves and their families.”&nbsp;- Lana Gifas, Executive Director, Women's Mentoring Network

Powerhouse Theatre Performing Arts Center

Thornton Wilder’s 1938 Pulitzer Prize-winning play, Our Town, is a timeless exploration of the human experience. Set in the fictionalized small town of Grover's Corners, New Hampshire, between 1901 and 1913, it follows the daily routines, loves, and tragedies of the Gibbs and Webb families. The play is famously performed with limited stage scenery and almost no props, using pantomime to encourage audiences to focus on the universal themes rather than design. We've selected Our Town for this season to highlight the 250th celebration by focusing on small town America, and specifically "Our Town" of New Canaan.
