Food trucks will be at both locations and Theatre Memphis will have vendors geared toward women selling promoting their wares and missions in the main lobby of the theatre.

Executive Producer at Theatre Memphis, Debbie Litch, states, "We are thrilled to collaborate with another arts organization as dedicated as The Dixon to promoting the role of women in the arts. A great deal can be learned by attending these events ... about oneself and about working with others. It's a great time to engage, get involved and network with other women."
