“We are so thrilled that one of Alyia Gaskins’s first events as mayor-elect will be this conversation with Alexandria women,” said ACW’s president Pat Miller. “The goal of our Salon series is to spotlight incredible women in Alexandria, and to have an opportunity get to know them as a person — and not just focus on what they do.”
ACW is a nonprofit founded to recognize the accomplishments of Alexandria’s women and the contributions they make to the city.
