First salon evening a big success

Thanks to Kim at Creation Station and to everyone who attended last night's salon evening. The energy in the room was incredible and I am sure that what grows out of this will be something special. As a result of last night, the number of wwp "membership friends" has doubled, and we have extended the network to more women. Look out for details of wwp's next special event: The Nurtury Open Day up in Lakefield on Saturday, May 2, 2009. We're also hoping to hold another salon evening in the Montreal area in the next month or so...Date and Place TBC. What is sure is that it will be held in another women-run business...Watch this space!

New banner and business cards

We are creating a new look for wine women and philosophy. Thanks for your help, Janice. Hope you like the new banner and business cards as much as we do.

Launch in January 2009

We are thrilled to announce that wine women and philosophy will be hosting wwp weekends in February, March and April. We are currently working on 5 new wwp weekends.

Want to be one of our wwp weekend hosts?

We want to hear from women interested in helping us to host a wwp weekend. Tell us a little about yourself, your interests and expertise. Most importantly give us a flavour of the kind of learning environment you would like to part of at wine women and philosophy.
