About NoMiWoman

Where Northern Michigan women find their people

NoMiWoman brings women together across Northern Michigan. Through events, membership, and our weekly e-news, we create welcoming spaces where women connect, share ideas, support one another, and build real relationships, whether you’re growing a business, starting one, or just looking for your people.

Our story

20+ years of women’s stories

NoMiWoman began in 2003 as Grand Traverse Woman Magazine, which later became Northern Michigan Woman Magazine. For more than 20 years, it shared the stories of women throughout the region. Today, that same spirit lives on in the gatherings and conversations that connect women across our community.

For businesses

Our events, e-news, and social channels put local businesses in front of an engaged community of women who show up, shop local, and spread the word.
