About:

The Red Tent Symposium for Women is a day and a half exchange centered on the needs of women.  Based on the novel The Red Tent by Anita Diamant, the red tent symbolizes a sacred and safe space where women can exchange ideas and insights. With the continuing motto: “Problem-Solving Outside of the Framework”, the Symposium will feature women-led workshops, lectures and panel discussions centered on problem solving in areas such as life balance health, advocating for children,  intuitive arts, mind of matter and more. The ultimate goal, as with each symposium, is to create effective dialogue and authentic exchange by and between women.
