Woman Of The Year
On October 13, 2007, the Women Innkeepers of Provincetown will begin a new tradition during Women’s Week by bestowing the Woman of the Year Award to a member of Provincetown’s women’s community. The intent of this Award is to honor a Provincetown woman who has made a significant difference in the lives of other women, and who has contributed in an extraordinary way to women and to her community.
The Women Innkeepers of Provincetown are honored this year to bestow this prestigious Woman of the Year Award to Kate Clinton, writer, activist, and comedian, for the great work she has done in raising political awareness and encouraging other women to live honestly and consciously. We wish to honor her twenty-five years of bringing laughter to the thousands of women who have listened to her unique perspective, and whose lives have been changed by her words.
The Award is represented by a stylized ceramic sculpture of a woman, designed and created by renowned Provincetown sculptor Gail Browne. The original sculpture will be on display at Gail Browne Studios on Commercial Street during Women’s Week, prior to the presentation.
The Women Innkeepers of Provincetown will present the Award to Kate Clinton during the gala Masquerade Ball on Saturday, October 13 at 10:30pm. The Ball will be held at Paramount at the Crown and Anchor, 247 Commercial Street, and features a night of dancing to the music of the incredible Claire Daly Band.
The mission of the Women Innkeepers of Provincetown is to promote, cultivate, and assist member innkeepers in business in Provincetown. Our primary focus is to fill our guest accommodations through networking, group marketing and advertising, mutual referrals and sponsorship of events. In addition, we work to provide a quality Provincetown experience to visitors and support our local Provincetown community.
The Women Innkeepers of Provincetown is a not-for-profit 501 (c) (6) organization, comprised of 7 member inns located in Provincetown, MA.
