WHERE: Amazing Woman’s Day 2008 is hosted at the prestigious Skirball Cultural Center, a Los Angeles, California facility that seeks to welcome and inspire people of every ethnic and cultural identity in American life.

HISTORY: The celebration of Amazing Woman’s Day was first conceived nearly a decade ago by creative development coach and author Marsh Engle. As the activities, programs and outreach of the Amazing Woman initiative has expanded over the years, the core mission remained the same: To serve as a unifying symbol of women everywhere who wish to bring a sense of value and purpose to their life, their community and the world. It was in March, 2001 that women throughout the nation first joined to establish the Amazing Woman’s Day movement in ten cities throughout the United States. To mark the first celebration, over 1,000 inspirational speakers, well-being experts, media personalities, and authors volunteered their time to honor women from all walks of life. In 2002 the celebration grew to 50 cities nationwide. A U.S. Congressional Proclamation establishes Amazing Woman’s Day as a nationwide initiative to celebrate the ingenuity and creativity of women everywhere. Since that time, the Amazing Woman's Day movement has served to inspire thousands across the nation.
