Women's Council: Legislative Fireside Chat & Social

June 26, 2025 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM (EDT)

Description

*In-Person Event*

Greater Rochester Chamber invites you to an evening of candid conversation and meaningful connections at New York Kitchen’s Wine Spectator Theater in Canandaigua, NY, on Thursday, June 26th, from 4:00 to 6:00 PM, as a part of our Women’s Council initiative.

Join us for a Legislative Fireside Chat & Social, an event designed specifically for women to foster dialogue, build connections, and inspire engagement within our community.

This event brings together female legislators from both parties for an open dialogue with professional women, focusing on issues that impact women in business. With a new administration in office, topics will include workforce development, economic equity, and policies shaping our professional landscape. Don’t miss this chance to engage with key leaders on the issues that matter most.

We ask that you submit your questions ahead of time to Cassidy Pendell at Cassidy.Pendell@GreaterRochesterChamber.com.  This panel will be moderated by our event host, NY Kitchen's Executive Director, Alyssa Belasco.

The members of the delegation committed to attending thus far are:

  1. New York State Senator Pam Helming
  2. New York State Assemblymember Sarah Clark  
  3. New York State Assemblymember Andrea Bailey 

Please note: Additional members of the delegation will be added to this list as they confirm their attendance. 

Following the hour-long moderated fireside chat, which begins promptly at 4:15 PM in NYK's Wine Spectator Theater, attendees will transition to a Social in the Tastings Room. There, you can continue the conversation, network with peers, and connect with the inspiring women shaping our community.

Don’t miss this chance to be part of an impactful conversation and a vibrant social experience in the beautiful setting of Canandaigua, NY.
