An Evening With Marian Keyes

Giggles, Gifts and a Glitterin Raffle at our Marian Keyes Event in The Westbury ???

?The sun was still shining as Marian Keyes fans began to arrive at The Westbury Hotel in Dublin for an evening with their favourite author. ?The excited attendees gathered in The Grafton Suite with chilled wine and canap’s, before taking their seats adorned with gifts from Bobbi Brown and a yummy bag of Percy Pigs to munch on during the event. Twitter was already hopping as IMAGE Editor-in-Chief Melanie Morris took to the stage to introduce Marian and announced that three lucky ladies had won Afternoon Tea in The Westbury. After only a few minutes, the audience had already fallen in love with Marian. Witty, charming and uncompromisingly honest, she talked us through her very real battle with addiction and depression and how she began her writing career.

After a wonderful Q&A session, there was a fabulous Glitterin? Raffle in aid of the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre with over €1,000 raised. Prizes included twelve luxury beauty hampers and a €250 gift card for Brown Thomas. One lucky winner also received a special jar of Marian’s fortune cookies. The success and enjoyment was clearly evident with #imageinspire trending in Ireland on the night!

Our next event is Wednesday July 15th in The Merrion for our Mentoring Workshop: The Art of Negotiation. See here?IMAGE Mentoring Workshop: The Art of Negotiation
