About this event

Pioneers in Skirts poster

BPW Denver is excited to host our 4th Annual BPW Day Feminist Film Fundraiser on Saturday, August 22nd! 
100% of the donations received through this event will benefit the Colorado Women’s Education Foundation (CWEF).

All chapters invited AND please invite your friends and colleagues to join us - from anywhere in the country!

We will be seeing “Pioneers in Skirts”, "a feature length documentary discussing the gender bias and sexism women confront in their careers and, in relatable story telling, offers strategies for what we all can do right now to move the culture past it — at work, in our society, and at home.

It’s about the core responsibility we ALL must have to catch our biases and prejudices.”

More info on the film and watch the trailer here: https://www.pioneersinskirts.com/

This isn't just another COVID-era night at home with Netflix!  BPW Denver has worked hard to make this the fun, festive event you've come to expect of our annual Feminist Film Fundraiser.  

We've put together a fantastic, fun event including the movie and a live discussion party,
as well as special movie treat and beverage deals, just for you!

Movie
- Watch the movie virtually at home anytime between 11am-6pm MDT on Saturday, August 22nd

Discussion Party
- After the film, join us from 6-8pm MDT for an engaging moderated discussion about the film and about the pioneer women who have made BPW what it is!  Come connect with our sisters and brothers working for gender equality!
Please note: Only the first 100 attendees will be able to join the Zoom event, so we recommend joining a few minutes early.
