Join us for a legendary kickoff to our newest exhibition Get in the Game: Sports, Art, Culture!
Hosted in the Heartland Whole Health Institute building on the Crystal Bridges Campus, the evening opens with remarks from Austen Barron Bailly, Chief Curator, and Katy Knox, President, Bank of America Private Bank. Following the introduction, we dive into a can’t-miss conversation between soccer icon Mia Hamm and moderator Steve Nelson.
A pioneer, a champion, and a cultural icon, Mia Hamm forever changed the game—not just for women’s soccer, but for sports worldwide. With two World Cup titles, two Olympic gold medals, and a record-breaking career, Hamm inspired a generation and redefined what was possible on and off the field. From her collegiate dominance at UNC to that unforgettable Gatorade commercial with Michael Jordan (“Anything you can do, I can do better”), Hamm proved time and again that greatness knows no gender.
Named ESPN’s greatest female athlete of the past 40 years, Hamm continues to lead as a fierce advocate for equity in sports and health through the Mia Hamm Foundation, supporting young women athletes and families in need of marrow or cord blood transplants.
This event is your front-row seat to hear from one of the greatest of all time. Don’t miss the chance to witness her story, her legacy, and her enduring call to action.
