WOMEN’S EMPOWERMENT 2026
Claiming: Owning Your Voice, Your Power, Your Life
MEET THE FACILITATOR
Keith Garletts
Artist • Illustrator • Creative Facilitator

Today we're doing something a little different—instead of showing you Keith, we're showing you a few of his creations.
Keith Garletts is an accomplished artist and illustrator whose work has included Harry Potter trading cards, Magic: The Gathering, and a wide variety of fantasy and commercial illustration.
But what Keith is bringing to Claiming: Owning Your Voice, Your Power, Your Life goes beyond creating art.
His interactive workshop explores choice, communication, creativity, and knowing what you want. Using facilitation techniques he has used while working with non-verbal individuals, participants will experience what happens when their communication options become intentionally limited—and they have to get very clear about the choices they make.
What do you want?
How do you communicate it?
And what possibilities start opening when you slow down enough to really think about those choices?
Sometimes owning your voice isn't about saying more. Sometimes it's about becoming clearer about what you want.
Join Keith Saturday, September 19, for an interactive exploration of creativity, communication, choice, and making your mark!

✨ LADIES… THIS ONE IS FOR YOU. ✨
Women’s Empowerment Weekend is almost here — and if you’ve been thinking about coming, this is your sign.
September 18–19, we’re taking over the Bear-Glasgow YMCA for CLAIMING: Owning Your Voice, Your Power, Your Life.
Two days of connection, movement, powerful conversations, incredible speakers, breakout sessions, sound healing, self-defense, women’s health, creativity, dancing, good food, mocktails…and maybe a reminder that you’re allowed to take up some space.
Last year, 75 women walked through those doors for our very first Women’s Empowerment Weekend. This year, we’ve
dreamed even bigger.
And I want YOU in the room.
Come with your best friend.
Your sister.
Your daughter.
Your mom.
Your coworker.
Or come by yourself — you won’t be alone
for long.
And YES — this event is OPEN TO THE
COMMUNITY! You do not need to be a YMCA member to attend.

🏐🏈Interested in learning a new skill this fall? Look no further than the Bear-Glasgow YMCA fall sports skills classes!🎾🏀

At the Bear-Glasgow YMCA, we believe in creating an inclusive space where children of all ages, skill level, and learning ability can come, join and connect with their peers. Our sports skill classes are the perfect opportunity for your child to gain confidence and learn lessons that will take them far beyond the sport.

Our skills classes run for 6-weeks and have one, 1-hour classes every week. Classes are led by YMCA instructors and assistants and focus on developing the skills and knowledge for children to become more comfortable and confident with themselves and the sport they enjoy.
