About this Event
This Women’s History Month, the Colorado Women’s Hall of Fame will gather to celebrate the lived legacy of Colorado women whose leadership continues to shape our state.
On Wednesday, March 25, we invite you to join us for Honoring Herstory: CWHF Changemakers, an evening dedicated to uplifting the voices, stories, and enduring impact of our inductees
The word “herstory” reminds us that history is personal. It is built through grit, resilience, innovation and the courage to lead when the path forward is uncertain. Our inductees embody these qualities, and their stories deserve to be shared widely and thoughtfully.
The evening will feature a distinguished panel of Hall of Fame inductees:
● Colonel Gail Benjamin Colvin, USAF (Ret), Class of 2024
● Lily Nie, Class of 2008
● Patricia Barela Rivera, Class of 2022
Moderated by fellow Class of 2010 inductee Jill Tietjen, the conversation will explore leadership, perseverance and the responsibility of shaping what comes next. Through their reflections, we will honor past achievements and consider how their experiences can inform and inspire the next generation of Colorado leaders.
Hosted at the RTL Foundation – home to the nation’s first BIPOC Nonprofit Development Center – the event reflects our shared commitment to equity, empowerment and expanding opportunity for historically underserved communities while preserving women’s history and actively investing in inclusive futures.
Guests will enjoy light appetizers and wine, a curated selection of inductee portrait displays and meaningful time for connection and community.
Honoring Herstory serves as an early cornerstone of our 2026 programming, setting the tone for a year focused on visibility, impact and engagement as we continue celebrating Colorado’s milestone anniversaries.
Together, we ensure that the extraordinary women
