Womentum offers events and educational opportunities for the general public to increase knowledge and awareness of today’s women’s issues.
During Women's History Month 2005 and 2006, Womentum hosted Lunafest in downtown Jackson, a film festival by, for and about women. In March 2007, Womentum hosted a sell-out Women in Leadership lunch and panel discussion in Jackson, featuring Marie C. Wilson, who has been a leading advocate for women’s issues for the past 30 years. Womentum partnered with The Nature Conservancy in May 2008 to host the inaugural Women’s Conference on Sustainability, which began a dialog among women who are working toward environmental sustainability through the arts, science, conservation, faith, communications and politics. Womentum's 2009 Leadership Lunch featured Jennifer Lowe-Anker at the Rendezvous Bistro in November. Lowe-Anker is a world traveler, author, artist, mother and president of the Alex Lowe Charitable Foundation.
