Do you help sustain a women’s historic site? Whatever you are doing, the National Women’s History Network is gearing up to spread the word about the innovative work being done to advance women’s history around the nation. The first organizing meeting is scheduled for Saturday, March 30 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Sewall Belmont House and Museum, 144 Constitution Avene, NE, Washington, DC. Everyone interested in promoting women’s history is invited. The National Women’s History Project will expand its website this summer to make it a digital hub for information related to how others can participate in this important endeavor. The goal is to leverage all the remarkable work that is being done to further expand the impact of women’s history on an individual, local, state, and national level and to further expand the impact of women’s history in the decade ahead. Email your contact information along with a 50-word description of your work to nwhp@nwhp.org. The National Women’s History Project will also network with members to organize planning meetings throughout the nation to develop plans for promoting women’s history. If you’d like a summary of the meeting on March 30, send your email address to nwhp@nwhp.org and you’ll be included in all the updates. Become an official member of this very important team. If not during Women’s History Month, when?

  • Hi Marguerite,
    I love reading your articles and enjoy the Suffrage Wagon very much. This past weekend I was in DC visiting my daughter. We went to the Sewall-Belmont House hoping to meet you and attend the organizational meeting for the National Women’s History Network. Unfortunately we missed both!!
    I am a docent at the National Susan B Anthony Museum & House and would love to learn more about this network as well as the planning for NY’s 1917 Centennial that you have mentioned in your articles.
    Thank you so much for your educational & interesting articles. I look forward to much more!
    Sincerely,
    Pat Kerper
