Government   

A National Constitution Center museum educator will lead participants on a Live guided virtual tour of our newest exhibit that traces the triumphs and struggles that led to the ratification of the 19th Amendment.

The tour will help individuals to better understand the long fight for women’s suffrage, and will also highlight some of the many women who transformed constitutional history—including Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Alice Paul, and Ida B. Wells. Plus, viewers will get an up-close look at some of the one-of-a-kind artifacts on display, including a rare printing of the Declaration of Sentiments from the nation’s first women’s rights convention in Seneca Falls, a ballot box used to collect women’s votes in the late 1800s, Pennsylvania’s ratification copy of the 19th Amendment, as well as visually compelling “Votes for Women” ephemera. This is a remote presentation.
