Thanks very much for taking time to swing by!

I’m Winter Williams, a community builder and financial feminist who curates joyful gatherings that include live music experiences and advocates for a healthier and more just economy.

Below is information about what the Crew and I are working on. If who we are and what we do resonates, please take a moment to check out upcoming events. Also below is a way sign up for the occasional short Quality Vibes email updates I send out. I promise not to spam!

Want to pitch in or collaborate? Have questions, feedback or ideas to share? Want to trouble shoot how to best boycott bullies and upset the dominant paradigm? Please email me!

Don’t see anything here that floats your boat so-to-speak? All good. But do please keep an eye out for other joy-based activities that might inspire you. These are trying times and it matters greatly how how we focus our energy.

Thanks again and take care out there!

Sincerely,

Winter Williams

What are we up to?

Event Production

Winter Williams Presents specializes in coordinating entertainment, community engagement, vendor and volunteer coordination, sponsor development and fundraising, marketing, promotion, strategic growth, equipment rentals, staffing and more.

We aspire to collaborate with mission driven organizations and mindful individuals planning meaningful projects and/or feel-good community gatherings that accomplish each collaborator’s objectives in a sustainable manner, we offer:

  • live music concert curation

  • consulting services

  • event staffing and production assistance

  • small-scale event equipment rentals

Financial Feminism

Be it how we earn, bank, borrow, invest, spend or share, our choices impact economic ecosystems and power paradigms that traditionally perpetuate exploitation and oppression. Waking up to this reality and financially figuring out how to live in a manner that better aligns with our values is a rocky unmarked road.

Our current priority projects include:

  • advocating for free or sliding-scale admission to events

  • promoting underrepresented artists and and paying production staff living wages

  • sharing resources that are economically empowering

  • completing The Next Economy MBA program led by LIFT Economy

  • recruiting moderators to re-launch the Financial Feminists groups she started on Facebook and MeetUp during the Pandemic

Winter is also available to strategically advise and / or speak publicly on the topic of financial feminism.
