Reno-based Female Expressions plans to host its first trade show in April.
The Nevada Women's Expo, to be held at the Reno-Sparks Convention Center, will feature exhibitors, workshops and speakers all geared to the interests of women.
It's the first event put on by the new division of Destinations West LLC, a locally-based event planner.
The show will be jointly sponsored by WNVQ radio station, which hosts an all-female morning show.
According to Female Expressions, the expo will feature fashion shows, makeovers and workshops and speakers on decorating, health and wellness, as well as "female-friendly foods." Kristy Hawke, head of Female Expressions, said she's witnessed the success of similar shows that are already up and running in other parts of the country.
The company is still working on signing up exhibitors and speakers, but Hawke said the show should take up between 5,000 and 10,000 square feet in the convention center.
The expo is scheduled for April 4- 6.
