2026 Power of the Purse

Purchase Tickets here

Bring your friends and join 200 women for this fun night out! During the evening you will enjoy a fashion show, bid on live and silent auctions, and find your next designer purse in our Twice New shopping area. We are also excited to honor our 2nd annual Woman of Power recipient.

Do you have purses to donate or need to clean out your closet? We are collecting new and gently used purses in great condition for our 2026 event. From Target to Vera Bradley to Hobo to Gucci, we’ll accept purses that are clean, fully functional, and in well cared for condition, with no significant stains, odors, damage, or excessive wear.
