“Well-behaved women seldom make history.” 

So goes the famous saying, the inspiration for this year’s celebration of TimeLine’s unique mission at an elegant evening that raises funds vital to our work. We’re stepping back across time to celebrate the influential, radical, and game-changing women who have shaped our world. From the Suffragettes to Women’s Liberation, from the Civil Rights Movement to #BlackGirlMagic, both household names and everyday sheroes have taken actions that moved culture forward. 

Join us as we uplift their stories and toast their lasting impact. It will be a rousing, unruly evening befitting these “misbehaving” women!
