The Women’s Foundation of Arkansas hosted two Power of the Purse events this year. The first, “Evening Bag,” was a casual reception held at the ESSE Purse Museum the evening before the luncheon. The 16th annual luncheon took place the following day at the Statehouse Convention Center and honored Catherine Hughes, founding member of WFA, as the Woman of the Year in Philanthropy.
