Through a display of artifacts, historic photographs and
interactive activities, this temporary exhibit chronicles women’s
struggle for the right to the vote from the mid-19th century to
the ratification of the 19th Amendment on Aug. 26, 1920, drawing
parallels to the ongoing fight for women’s equality that
continues today.
The exhibit was developed in collaboration with First
Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom, who serves as California’s
representative on the Women’s Suffrage Centennial Commission. The
exhibit will be on view in person when indoor museums in
Sacramento County are cleared to reopen by the California
Department of Public Health.
