We are very excited to announce that AARP’s Office of Community Engagement is bringing Luminous Life, a transformative campaign designed to empower African American women ages 45–65 through curated resources in hair care, health, and wealth management, to Milwaukee on Oct. 25.

The signature event will be held at the Urban Ecology Center in Milwaukee, bringing together experts, influencers, and community leaders to celebrate wellness, financial empowerment, and cultural pride.
