IN a world that evolves, one truth remains: women are at the heart of progress.

The celebration kicks off with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at Gateway Mall 2 and Farmers Plaza.
At Farmers Plaza, the #SeeHerHustle Creations Fair highlights female-led businesses with live art painting, belly dancing and a dried flower workshop to inspire creative entrepreneurs.
