Young Women LEAD invites high school girls to attend this year’s Young Women LEAD Conference hosted at the University of Kentucky
The YWL conference presented by Toyota is for girls and focuses on Leadership, Education and Development (LEAD). The conference features interactive keynote, STEM panel speakers, community leaders, and more. The conference is FREE to all participants. YWL teaches important skills needed to be successful in the workforce and ways to develop confidence and leadership potential.
This year’s keynote will feature Ava Johnson – Say It with Music. Ava will lead us in an interactive STEAM experience empowering attendees through music, STEM, and more. You will discover the secretes to music songwriting and production in this highly interactive keynote. Learn how your words are more powerful than you imagined and how your actions are influenced by music.
All attendees will have the opportunity to send a postcard to space with Blue Origin’s Club for the Future. Each attendee will receive a postcard that Club for the Future will launch into space and back on a New Shepard rocket and return to you stamped “Flown to Space.”
