AWITA Conference
The BUILD YOUR OWN ART WORLD Conference took place on Monday 3rd July 2023 at Phillips Auction House.
Programme
The day was less conference, more a toolkit for professional women. Rich in practical takeaways, case studies, conversations and hands on workshops, there was time for reflection, self-awareness and to connect with peers.
Delegates also had the chance to get professional headshots taken by our talented photographers. Innovative skin and hair care brand Dr Barbara Sturm sponsored a "Glow Up" station for delegates to freshen up before their photo sessions. Evening networking drinks were sponsored by luxury champagne brand Ruinart.
