National Galentine’s Day
February 13, 2023 All day
February 13th is National Galentine’s Day!
What is Galentine’s Day?
It is a day for women to celebrate their friendships with one another and show appreciation for the important women in their lives.
The holiday was popularized by the television show “Parks and Recreation,” in which the character Leslie Knope, played by Amy Poehler, gathers her female friends on the day before Valentine’s Day to celebrate their friendship. Since then, Galentine’s Day has become a cultural phenomenon, with many women using the day to bond with their female friends.
Galentine’s Day is often celebrated with brunches, dinners, or other special outings with friends. Gifts and cards are also exchanged as a way to show appreciation for the important women in one’s life.
The holiday is a fun and positive way to celebrate the strong bonds of female friendship and to remind us all of the importance of supportive and uplifting relationships with other women.
