Please join us for the inauguration of  “The Past, Present, and Future of U.S. Women’s History” lecture series, a joint venture between the
The National Women’s History Museum (NWHM) and the Woodrow Wilson Center. This series is aimed at promoting the need for a national museum to focus on women’s lives  over the course of United States history. Our goal is to cover diverse topics in women’s history, explore leading scholarship and address the question, “Why women’s history?”


Please check back to this site for updated information about the lecture series. The lectures will be held monthly at the Wilson Center thoughout the 2011-2012 academic year. A reception will follow the lecture from 5:30-6.
