Come exactly as you are—hot flashes, brain frogs, snack cravings and all. Whether you’re just curious about what lies ahead, deep in the thick of it, or have sailed through and left the sweats and swings behind, you’re welcome in this room. Join us for honest conversation with real people: belly laughs, a bit of a winge when needed, and the kind of hard-earned wisdom that only comes from surviving night sweats, shifting moods and everything in between. Share your own stories, or simply sit back with some lovely treats and soak up the legendary insights of your peri/menopausal sisters.

Brigid is revered as both an ancient Irish goddess and a Christian saint, celebrated for her powerful associations with sunrise, fire, and gold. Join us as we explore Brigid alongside other remarkable women represented in the Chester Beatty collections, and create your own richly embellished portrait inspired by these saints, goddesses, and queens.
