I loved the fashion show and all the women being so brave. It took some courage to walk in front of all those women & those gals looked like pros! I found all of it empowering.

FAQ
SPARK Weekend is the evolution of the 2018 Girls’ Night Out event UNVEILED hosted in Terre Haute. After we wrapped up our event last fall, the feedback was overwhelming that women WANTED and NEEDED an annual event where they could refresh, connect and celebrate.
So we leveled up for 2019.
SPARK Weekend is part deep dive discovery sessions (speakers, presentations, hands-on learning) and part PARTY (fashion show, dancing, photo booths and MORE).
The event takes place over the course of a Saturday, but we’re calling it a weekend to encourage women to carve out time for themselves to fully immerse in this unique event they are so deserving to experience.
All events for SPARK Weekend will take place at the FAR Center for Contemporary Arts in downtown Bloomington, Indiana.
With a mission to challenge boundaries, start conversations, stir human emotion, and shape community, in an influential space for contemporary art and creativity in all forms, we couldn’t think of a better place to host our event!
Programming and events for the 2019 SPARK Weekend have been created for women age 18 and up. Stay tuned for updates on our 2020 events, as we are in development to additionally host empowerment events geared towards teens and tweens!
You can experience the event in two ways:
SPARK Party Ticket: Come party with us the night of July 27th. Fashion show, photo booths, confidence boosting activities, cash bar and late night snacks as you dance the night away.
Weekender Ticket: Fully immerse into self-development as you learn and engage in the the daytime lineup of discovery sessions. Break for a refresh of body and mind while you enjoy what Bloomington has to offer, then return for SPARK Party.

Girl. You do you.
The daytime activities will be a combo of seated and interactive activities with the focus on learning, so we encourage being comfortable while feeling great.
The SPARK Party is exactly that. A PARTAYYY. So we encourage you to dress to feel like your best self! We want you to feel empowered to celebrate the skin you’re in, and there are gonna be photo booths.
An open mind and positive attitude to learn. That’s all we ask.
Oh, and something to wear, but what that ends up being in totally up to you!
Oh yes. The daytime activities for Weekender ticket holders will range from being light-hearted and full of laughter to self-reflective and deep.
After each speaker/presentation/discovery session you’ll have the chance to hit the bathroom, grab a drink or get some air.
We get it. Each attendee will process the experience differently, and that is what makes this event so empowering! Chat with friends in between session or take a solo stroll around the art gallery to collect your thoughts.
Additionally, for Weekender ticket holders there will be about a 4 hour break between the daytime activities and the SPARK Party. This allows attendees the opportunity to unwind, check in to the hotel, eat dinner downtown and get ready for those photo booth pics that night!
Whether you want to come solo or bring your girl gang, you can purchase up to ten tickets at the time of check out.
What I loved most about the event was getting out with friends and meeting new people in a positive environment. I was in a rut personally and hadn't been socializing much. Your event gave me a reason to get out, see my friends and have a great time. I needed that.
