NEW this year! First Missouri screening of Things We Don’t Talk About: Women’s Stories from the Red Tent. (6-8:00 p.m. screening, other activities ongoing from 4-8:00)
What is MamaFest?
At our very first official meeting, we all agreed that community outreach was a goal for Rolla Birth Network. After all, how can we help women if they don’t know we exist? Several ideas were tossed around, but we kept coming back to a celebration event. What better way to introduce ourselves and get our message out than to have a party! And so, MamaFest was born.
We envisioned a fun, relaxing time where women could gather to rejuvenate from everyday life. Participants got to enjoy a quick chair massage while sipping some iced tea, or visited the red tent area to share their child’s birth story and created birth art. Ever wondered what a doula does or which baby carrier to buy? We had you covered!
Our first annual event, MamaFest 2012, was a tremendous success and we enjoyed another successful event in 2013. We hope to do even better this year, so don’t miss out! We’re adding more vendors every day. If you have a mama-oriented business, please feel free to contact us for vendor information.
