Black River Coliseum

This is the 1st year the Women Aware Conference has completely sold out all day tickets this early due to the Keynote speaker being the 2026 American Idol winner, Hannah Harper. The conference is scheduled for September 15, 2026 at the Black River Coliseum in Poplar Bluff, MO.

Hannah Harper embarked on her musical journey at just 9 years old. Growing up in Southeast Missouri, she was part of a family steeped in the rich traditions of bluegrass gospel music, with the legacy of Bob Lewis and The Bob Lewis Family as her foundation. This musical heritage, passed down through generations, set the stage for Hannah’s early exposure to music.
Traveling with her family, The Harper Family honed her musical talents and developed a profound passion for songwriting and music ministry. Taking a position as worship leader at a small church in Missouri, brought a new chapter in her life – it’s where she met her husband, Devon. They married in 2018 and soon began building a family. Now a mom of three little boys, Hannah and Devon, live a quaint life in a little white house in the woods, balancing family, faith, and music.
Now an aspiring songwriter, Hannah combines years of performing experience with her unique personal insights. Her music often reflects her life’s journey, including her heartfelt tribute to motherhood in the song “String Cheese.” While balancing musical aspirations with the joys and challenges of raising a family, Hannah remains committed to authenticity and excellence in her craft.
Hannah is poised to make a significant impact as she steps into her solo career, eager to explore new opportunities and continue her artistic journey.
Though the all-day conference tickets are sold out, you can still purchase a speaker only ticket for $25 to hear this year's keynote speaker, Hannah Harper, as she shares her journey at 3:00 PM on September 15th, during the last hour of the conference. Speaker tickets are available though our www.womenawareinc.com website.
As always, the success of each year's conference could not happen without the support of our sponsors, community support, and those who chose to attend each year. This conference will be memorable.
