Got talent?

Being ME Vancouver is excited to be hosting its first Talent Show at the upcoming 2013 Women’s Conference! We’re inspired by the wondrous hub of creative skills and talents that local Muslim women are blessed with, and are wholly dedicated to creating a platform for extraordinary Muslim women of all ages, to showcase their talents. The show will take place in the main hall of the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver on conference day.


“Divine Liberation”: Do You Fit the Bill?

The theme for this year’s talent show is “Divine Liberation”- expressing the beauty of the liberation endowed to women by Islam. In-line with the conference’s mission, the aim of the talent show is to highlight and acknowledge that Muslim women can be, and are, strong contributors to the arts and other faculties. Our mission is not only to appreciate the contributions of all Muslim women, but also to motivate other Muslimahs to embrace and develop their own talents.
