Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, we’re turning The Women’s Expo into a virtual event!

In an effort to support our performers, speakers, and business owners, we're partnering with MCN6 and Around Town Media to bring you a Virtual Expo for everyone to experience from the comfort and safety of their homes. We will be broadcasting various components of the original event LIVE online and on Cable Ch 6 locally. Tune in on the same dates as our original in-person event was set to take place (March 28 and 29).

WHERE TO WATCH: The Virtual Women’s Expo will be streamed live from Minnesota’s Community Network on Facebook.com/minnesotacommunitynetwork, MCN6.org, Roku (search MCN6), cable channel 6 in the Twin Cities Metro Area and the MCN6 YouTube channel. Minnesota’s Community Network sources the best “MN made content in support of building strong diverse community.”

We are also partnering with Springboard for the Arts to turn the Virtual Women’s Expo into a fundraising effort that supports artists, small business owners, and independent contractors who have experienced great financial losses due to the cancellations all over town.
