It's all happening on Thursday, February 13th at the legendary Winter Garden Theatre from 730pm to10pm. Speakers such as Juno Award Winner Jully Black, Acclaimed Author Sally Armstrong, Award Winning Filmmaker Jennifer Podemski and many more will be sharing ten minutes each of inspiration and courageous stories.
