About
We’re making a free music festival led by women, with songs, dancing, and friendly stages where everyone is welcome. It’s a big community party where people listen, celebrate, and feel happy, safe, and included together.
Impact
Our project lifts up women’s voices, brings people together, and keeps art free and accessible. It helps artists thrive, strengthens communities, creates joy and belonging, and reminds people that music, care, and connection make the world healthier
Progress
We’ve built the largest free, women-led music festival in the U.S. over 14 years, welcoming thousands of people and artists. We’ve secured partners, planned new programs, and are expanding into a full Women’s Week to grow impact beyond one day
Team
I am uniquely qualified to steward Ladybug because I combine nonprofit leadership, brand strategy, and event experience with deep respect for its mission focused on sustainability and systems that help a free, women-led cultural platform grow.
