This year’s premier event “Axia – A Celebration of Extraordinary Greek American Women” will honor and celebrate the extraordinary women of our community who have steadfastly contributed to our rich Hellenic heritage. These are women of resilience, courage, dignity, and creativity who excelled in commerce, philanthropy, medicine, arts, education for the last 100 years, some who may be familiar to you and others perhaps not. All are invited to attend this yearly affair that is like no other in Philadelphia. It is truly a unique affair that unites Hellenes and Philhellenes and roots us as Greek-Americans.
