Welcome to the first issue of the new year—an issue devoted to the many extraordinary women of our community,  featuring our annual special advertising feature, Women in Business. We invite you to learn about these inspiring business leaders, meet local authors and the women influencing our local culture through their various pursuits, from literacy and a love of books to health, design and wine. In honor of Black History Month, we also highlight vital history with the Woodson African American Museum of Florida, recognize critical community conversations hosted by the Foundation for a Healthy St. Petersburg and prepare to celebrate St. Pete’s annual MLK Dream Big Celebration.
