Ladies looking to take their career to new heights can get free counselling and career grooming tips from refining their resumes to defining their personal brand from the talented team at Working Queens. Azzure Salon will be ensuring women are pampered with complimentary hair and nail treatments. While those who wish to use creativity as a tool for enhancing their mental wellness can get into freestyle painting sessions with Art by Melous, while VIP Pets are on standby to provide free pet grooming.
