The Museum of History and Industry (MOHAI) will partner with the League of Women Voters of Greater Seattle in hosting a free Forum Thursday, September 9, 7:30-9:00PM at MOHAI, 2700 24th Ave. E. in Seattle, celebrating 100 years of votes for Washington women.
How have votes for women affected our democracy? Hear King County Elections Director Sherrill Huff, Washington State Women’s History Consortium Coordinator Shanna Stevenson and Voter Action Director Holly Jacobson examine how 100 years of votes for Washington women have impacted our state and how everyone’s voting is changing in today’s digital age.
“Women’s Votes – Womens Voices”, Mohai’s exhibition of how women won the vote in Washington in 1910 – the fifth state in the union to do so – will be open during regular museum hours through Oct. 1, 2010.
