Special Event
Did you know that suffragists were the first to organize a picket and protest a sitting president in front of the White House? Join Ranger Lauren for Silent Sentinel Sundays to discover the brilliant and courageous tactics used in the fight for women's right to vote. This never-before-seen activism drew widespread attention to the cause and would pave the way for future civil rights demonstrations.
Meet at Freedom Plaza on Pennsylvania Avenue between 13th and 14th Streets, NW. The walking tour will start at 11am and last 45-60 minutes, ending at Lafeyette Park with a short presentation in front of the White House. Please dress for the weather, wear comfortable shoes, and bring water.
