Event Description:

Anchorage ATHENA Society Luncheon 

 

It's 2022, a new year with new ambitions and hopes for moving forward in these pandemic times. For three decades, the local ATHENA chapter has worked, with the backing of the Anchorage Chamber of Commerce,  to encourage the potential of all women as valued members and leaders of our Anchorage Community.  Our signature event is the recognition of those who meet this standard by inducting these leaders into the Anchorage ATHENA Society. Due to COVID, we did not select a class for 2021 but we are this year determined not to let it define us.

Our traditional luncheon will be held between 11:30 and 1 pm on Monday, March 21st at the Dena'ina Center. Tickets are $50 per person; tables of ten (10) start at $500 and can be purchased through the registration button.  Should future COVID outbreaks require the event to be canceled or moved to a Zoom event, ticket money will be refunded.

As the Anchorage ATHENA Society continues to plan for the upcoming luncheon we have updated our COVID protocols. We encourage all guests to wear a mask per their level of comfort. Negative test and vaccine requirements are no longer in place.

Ticket sales are closed as we are sold out. If you are an ATHENA please contact events@anchoragechamber.org for seating. 

Already purchased a table or ticket in 2020? Click here to see if your payment was confirmed. If your name/business is on the list RSVP to Katie Cole at events@anchoragechamber.org
