Join the New Albany Women’s Network for an unforgettable evening celebrating the excitement of the Kentucky Derby! Our Evening in New Albany -  Run for the Roses Derby Party will take place on May 2, 2026 at the beautiful New Albany Country Club.

Guests will enjoy an evening of festive Derby fun including delicious food and dancing.   Don your best Derby attire and compete in our Best Derby Hat Contest while mingling with friends before gathering together to watch the most exciting two minutes in sports.  Pick your favorite horse to win (or lose) and cheer them on for a chance to win our grand prize.  

Proceeds from the event support the mission of the New Albany Women’s Network, including community programming, high school scholarships, and the NAPLS author visit.

Tickets are $80 and include heavy appetizers.  Grab your favorite hat, bring your friends, and join us for a memorable evening in support of NAWN!

When you attend a NAWN event, you’re doing more than enjoying a fun evening—you’re helping support programs that benefit our local schools and community. Proceeds from NAWN events help fund high school scholarships for graduating seniors and initiatives such as the NAPLS author visit, which brings inspiring writers to New Albany schools to encourage and engage young readers.

NAWN events also allow us to support local charitable organizations and continue creating meaningful opportunities for women in our community to connect and give back.
