The theme of the kickoff breakfast and the official International Women’s Day 2021 theme is ‘Choose to Challenge.’ A challenged world is an alert world.

Those who attend the breakfast in person will also have the opportunity to preview HREI’s Women’s Month exhibit A Tribute to Heroines of Human Rights. Later in the week on Friday, HREI will introduce the exhibit during ArtWalk, hosted the second Friday of each month by the Coeur d’Alene Arts & Cultural Alliance. ArtWalk provides an opportunity to stroll through downtown Coeur d’Alene and enjoy the work of local and national artists at participating galleries, and HREI will be open for extended hours so ArtWalk attendees can stop by and enjoy the exhibit that chronicles the history of women activists, from Susan B. Anthony and Harriet Tubman to Michelle Obama and Malala Yousafzai.

HREI is located in downtown Coeur d’Alene adjacent to the Carousel in Coeur d’Alene City Park at 414 W. Fort Grounds Drive.
