California has always been replete with remarkable women. As
community leaders and activists, inventors and entertainers, as
mothers, daughters, sisters and partners, California’s remarkable
women serve 24/7 on the front lines of humanity.
Extraordinary women from every walk of life strengthen, shape and
serve our great state. This exhibit honors their significant
roles and achievements, drawing its inspiration from past and
present achievements of California women. In doing so, it
delivers an energetic message about the limitless opportunities
and possibilities awaiting present and future generations of
women leaders.
From farm worker organizer Dolores Huerta to astronaut Sally Ride
to designer Ray Eames, the exhibit includes approximately 200
remarkable California women. Inspired by former First Lady Maria
Shriver, the exhibit is presented in partnership with California
State Parks.
