Celebrating 100 years of women’s suffrage!
Join us for a half-day commemoration of the ratification of the 19th Amendment, which will celebrate the diverse voices of the women’s suffrage movement in Iowa and note other important landmarks in the American journey to universal adult suffrage. Enjoy music; a performance of the one-woman show, The Yellow Rose of Suffrage; food and drink; and discussions with scholars who will share their knowledge of this historical moment as well as continuing efforts to encourage women’s full political participation.
Although the vote was hard won, the work is not yet done.
This event is free and open to the public.
