Join us at LAANE’s Women for a New Los Angeles Luncheon, the largest women’s event of its kind in Los Angeles, as we celebrate women’s leadership and forge a common vision for equality and justice in Los Angeles.
Held each spring for over ten years, the Women for a New Los Angeles Luncheon brings together more than 700 progressive women (and men) from across Southern California. Previous honorees and speakers at the Women for a New Los Angeles Luncheon have included SHOWTIME’s Masters of Sex, HBO’s Getting On, Jane Fonda, Arianna Huffington, civil rights attorney Connie Rice, Ramona Ripston of the ACLU of Southern California, Labor Commissioner of California Julie Su and best-selling authors Barbara Ehrenreich, Peggy Orenstein and Lisa See, as well as activist Katherine Spillar and historian Dr. Joyce Appleby, among others.
The Women for a New Los Angeles Luncheon also showcases brilliant young leaders who have attended the Beth and Julia Meltzer Internship Program at LAANE.
