The City of Miramar will hold its Annual Women’s Empowerment Luncheon on Friday, March 13, 2026, from 12:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the Miramar Cultural Center, 2400 Civic Center Place. The event, hosted by Vice Mayor Yvette Colbourne, celebrates leadership, achievement, and the advancement of women.
The luncheon will feature keynote remarks from Haitian-American Karine Jean-Pierre, former White House Press Secretary and Senior Advisor to former President Joseph R. Biden Jr. Born in Fort-de-France, Martinique, France, to Haitian immigrant parents, Jean-Pierre was the first Caribbean-American, the first Black person, and the first openly LGBTQ person to hold the press secretary position.
“The Women’s Empowerment Luncheon is a celebration of resilience, leadership, and the extraordinary contributions of women in every sector of our society,” said Vice Mayor Colbourne. “It is also an opportunity to recognize and uplift the remarkable women who are making a difference right here in Miramar.”
The celebration will begin with a special kickoff on Wednesday, March 4, 2026, at City Hall, where Vice Mayor Colbourne will present proclamations honoring ten Miramar residents for their achievements and community service.
The luncheon program will include a poetic performance by Marlo Vashti and a musical performance by vocalist Arnitrius Williams. Awards will also be presented to outstanding women who have made a meaningful impact in the Miramar community.
Previous editions of the event have featured distinguished speakers such as Valerie Jarrett, Ana Navarro, Donna Brazile, and Angela Rye. The luncheon reflects the city’s commitment to advancing equity, fostering dialogue, and strengthening community engagement.
Residents are encouraged to register early for the event, which brings together local leaders, professionals, and community members for an afternoon of inspiration and recognition. Registration is available at WomenEmpowermentLunch2026.eventbrite.com.
