Power within the Pearl: Women’s Networking Series

The quiet power of transformation, creation of a pearl.

Join us for an inspiring evening with Siân Rutherford, Strathcona alumna and Co-Director Rutherford Jewellery, a third-generation jewellery business in antique and fine jewellery, and pearls from around the globe.

Siân will share her transformative journey, from a Strathcona student to an accomplished and travelled businesswoman; mirroring the slow, layered beauty of the pearl itself.

Guiding the conversation is guest MC, Alice Stolz, Domain’s National Property Editor, Strathcona parent, and one of the most trusted and respected voices in Australian property and design. With warmth, insight and style, Alice brings her own lens on transformation, of spaces, stories, and self.

We are excited to also share that on the evening we will host a silent auction of a bespoke Rutherford Jewellery piece, generously donated by Siân and Rutherford. All proceeds will support our Centenary Scholarship Fund, which provides a full senior school education at Strathcona for a deserving student whose family circumstances would otherwise make this opportunity out of reach. Philanthropy is deeply woven into Siân’s story and Rutherford’s values, and we are grateful for their generous support.

This is also a unique opportunity to network with like-minded women, promote your business, and grow your personal or professional profile in a vibrant and supportive community. Tickets are limited for this special event so please book in early.

Intimate tours of our beautiful historical mansion and transformative Year 9 campus Tay Creggan will be offered on the evening.

Together, we will explore what it means to grow under pressure, lead with vision, and shine with purpose.

For $25 per person, enjoy roaming canapes and bubbles throughout the evening.
