Commercial Real Estate Women’s Celebration Set

Women in Commercial Real Estate, a Southern California organization formed last year, will hold its first holiday celebration on Tuesday at 6 p.m. at Yamato’s Restaurant in Century City.

The 75-member group will also recognize its 1986 slate of officers, which includes Joanne Williams, Merrill Lynch, president; Dian Potter, Grubb & Ellis, vice president-membership; Julie Ellis, Ahmanson Development, vice president; Adrienne Dabah, Tishman West, treasurer, and Wendy Bryden, Matlow-Kennedy, secretary.

The organization was established to strengthen business relationships and encourage opportunities for women in commercial real estate. Meetings are held the third Tuesday of each month at the Westwood Marquis Hotel.
