Hellenic American Women’s Council honors Greek heroines in Spetses islandBetween June 26-28

The Hellenic American Women's Council (HAWC) is hosting a special Bicentennial Celebration to honor four extraordinary Greek Heroines, June 26-28, in Spetses, Greece. HAWC joins Greece 2021 in celebrating the Greek identity and cultural heritage while commemorating the 200 years since the Greek Revolution of 1821 that established Greece as an independent nation.

HAWC invites the Hellenes and Philhellenes to join in this once-in-a-lifetime event that will take place at the renowned Anargyrios & Korgialenios Foundation Estate and also at the Bouboulina Museum. Register in advance through May 5.

HAWC will be honoring women who defied the proscribed roles for women in their century and emerged as powerful heroines and role models for all of us: Bouboulina (19th century), Manto Mavrogenous (19th century), Lady of Ro (20th century) and Stella Kokolis (21st century).
