Her Story, Our Nation: America250 Women’s Sites in Washington, DC

Tuesday, May 19th, 6:00 p.m.

Women’s history is everywhere in Washington, DC, if curious locals and adventurous visitors know where  to look. As the District evolved from a city created to house the federal government into one of the world’s  most visited destinations, women emerged as pioneers, shaping a capital rich in feminist culture.  Historic houses, hidden alleyways, and neighborhood parks stand as quiet memorials to America’s  founding mothers who helped build the nation’s capital. Representatives from A Tour of Her Own, a  Washington-based touring company, will guide audiences through key America250-related sites  connected to the nation’s founding, highlighting both the women whose stories are marked and those  whose legacies remain hidden in plain sight.

The program will be presented in hybrid format, with in-person and virtual options. To attend virtually,  register at: https://shorturl.at/dvpLV. The program is free and open to the public.
