NETWORKING EVENT
MONDAY 28th APRIL 2025.
Join us for an evening of history, art, and connection as AFLE partners with the Hellenic Museum for our Term 2 networking event.
Explore the stories of trailblazing women in Greek history and mythology through the museum’s stunning exhibitions, including:
Well Behaved Women – A powerful outdoor portrait series by Loretta Lizzio, celebrating women who defied societal norms.
The Oracle – Discover the legacy of the Pythia of Delphi, the high priestess whose wisdom shaped the ancient world.
Following the exhibition viewing, museum staff will present insights into these works, sparking discussion on women, leadership, and breaking boundaries—past and present. Then, continue the conversation over networking drinks with fellow women in education leadership.
This is a one-of-a-kind event that blends art, history, and leadership—don’t miss it!
This event is FREE for members!
