Celebrate International Women's Day in St. Croix: An Event to Inspire and Empower

Empowering Women, Strengthening Communities, and Advancing Equality.
On Saturday, March 8, 2025, the vibrant community of St. Croix will come together to celebrate International Women's Day with an event designed to educate, inspire, and empower. Taking place at 2209 Queen Cross Street, Christiansted, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM, this gathering will bring together women, allies, and advocates to recognize the progress made toward gender equality while acknowledging the work still to be done.

The celebration will feature food, drinks, entertainment, and networking opportunities. A highlight of the event will be the ribbon-cutting ceremony for Joyia Jewelry. Hosted in partnership with Great Exploration Tours, Joyia Jewelry, and Women in Business Virgin Islands & Caribbean Chapter (WIBVIC), the event will also support the local community, as a portion of the proceeds will benefit WIBVIC. Entry to the event is $20.

This year's International Women's Day theme, "Accelerate Action," underscores the urgency of advancing gender equality. According to the World Economic Forum, at the current pace, full gender parity will not be achieved until 2158. The event in St. Croix will provide an opportunity to discuss these challenges while celebrating the achievements of women locally and globally.

Great Exploration Tours, a premier provider of private and luxury travel experiences in the Virgin Islands, is honored to be part of the event.

"International Women's Day is a reminder of the incredible contributions of women worldwide. We are proud to support an event that fosters empowerment and community," said a company spokesperson.

The event will also showcase the artistic craftsmanship of Joyia Jewelry, known for its handcrafted fine jewelry inspired by the beauty of family, friendship, and life on the island of St. Croix.

"Jewelry has long been a symbol of strength and heritage," commented the owner of Joyia Jewelry. "We are excited to mark this special occasion with the grand opening of our store, celebrating resilience, empowerment, and the creative spirit of women."

Women in Business Virgin Islands & Caribbean Chapter (WIBVIC), a nonprofit dedicated to supporting and elevating women entrepreneurs, sees this event as an essential step toward strengthening female-led businesses and initiatives.

"As purpose-driven women on a mission, WIBVIC is committed to creating opportunities for women to thrive," remarked a representative from WIBVIC.

With a combination of celebration, advocacy, and community engagement, International Women's Day - St. Croix promises to be a meaningful event that leaves a lasting impact. Attendees will have the opportunity to network, learn, and take part in a global movement dedicated to progress and equality.
