WomenVenture Photo Essay

July 25, 2019 - Thousands of women gathered on the Boeing Plaza for the annual, expansive gathering of passionate female aviators and aviation enthusiasts during the 12th annual EAA WomenVenture at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh.

"It was so exciting to see so much enthusiasm and so many purple shirts on the plaza today. We really want to thank Boeing as a major sponsor of WomenVenture, and of course all of the wonderful and amazing women who have been able to come together," said Heather Penney, EAA Aviation Foundation Women Soar Society Advisory Board chair, EAA board of directors member, and Sr. Fellow at Mitchell Institute. "People don't realize how much talent, how much passion, how much competence, how much expertise that women bring to the table. So to be able to create these connections, make new friendships, and renew and strengthen old friendships is fantastic, and we can't wait to see everyone again next year!"
