Teachers. Doctors. Lawyers. Business leaders. Artists. Philanthropists. The women who shape Alabama are everywhere. What they have in common is their commitment to working to make others’ lives better.

They’re the ones working tirelessly to drive movements, businesses, and industries that can make a difference. Since they don’t work for their own glory, they’re often not given the recognition they deserve. That’s where we come in.

We want to know who you think are Women Who Shape The State. Honorees will be profiled on AL.com and recognized at our awards luncheon on Nov. 5.

Right now, we’re calling for nominations. If there’s one of your coworkers or colleagues who you think is working to make a difference in the community, nominate her now. Nominations open through Sept. 3.

Let’s give these women the recognition they deserve.

Birmingham, Ala., September 2, 2015 — AL.com announces its second pop up dinner in Mobile on October 1. The location of the dinner will be the Gulf Coast Exploreum Science Center. Tickets are $125 per person. AL.com members will receive a $50 ticket discount as well as a limited number of annual memberships to the Exploreum, available to the first 50 members that purchase tickets. Additional information can be found at al.com/popupdinner.

The pop up dinner will be themed around the Sept. 26 opening of the Exploreum’s “Chocolate: The Exhibit”, complete with a cocktail reception in the exhibit space and a five course, wine-paired dinner with chocolate as the star.

The pop up dinner movement, which initially started in 2011, is intended to promote and celebrate food culture. In just a matter of hours, a non-restaurant space gets transformed into a whole new dinner venue. Attendees get the opportunity to interact in a new communal dinner setting, meet people they otherwise may not have and have the chance to meet and talk with the chef.
For more information on the chef and event, visit al.com/popupdinner. Stay up to date on the reveal of the menu, signature cocktails and future pop-up events by following us on Facebook.
