Peterborough Women in Trades is bringing the community together next week for Built to Connect: Trades Trivia Night, an evening of friendly competition, great food, networking and conversation in support of women working in and entering the skilled trades.
The event takes place Wednesday, September 16, from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. at 100 Acre Brewing Co. in Peterborough. Tickets are $40 per person and include food, an evening of trivia, prizes, plenty of laughs, and an opportunity to connect with people from across the community. Hosted by the Peterborough Women in Trades Committee, Built to Connect is about much more than testing your trades knowledge.
The evening is designed to connect people across the local construction and skilled trades community, celebrate women already building careers in the industry, and help make the trades feel more visible and accessible to the next generation. Everyone is welcome — and work boots are encouraged.
Guests are encouraged to grab their friends, bring some competitive spirit and join in for a fun, casual evening. No construction or trades expertise is required to take part. Whether you work in the industry, are considering a career in the trades, support someone who does, or simply love a good trivia night, the event is open to all. Built to Connect reflects what Peterborough Women in Trades is all about: creating a stronger community for women already working in the trades while making the industry more visible and accessible to the next generation.
By bringing tradespeople, industry partners, students and supporters together in a relaxed setting, the committee hopes to strengthen existing connections, create new ones, and encourage more people to see the skilled trades as a place where they can build a rewarding career. The event comes at a time when attracting the next generation to careers in construction and the skilled trades continues to be an important conversation locally and across Ontario. Peterborough Women in Trades is working to be part of that conversation by creating opportunities for connection, visibility and community within the industry. Tickets are $40 per person, with food included, and can be purchased in advance online.
