Celebrating the National Women's Suffrage Centennial with Suffrage Special Whistle Stop Tour

Washington State Women’s Commission is co-hosting an event to celebrate the National Women’s Suffrage Centennial this August. We invite you to climb aboard the digitally delivered Suffrage Special Whistle Stop Tour!

This eight-episode video series is thematically based on the real life 1909 “Suffrage Special” train, which carried local and national suffragists across the country and through Washington State from Spokane to Seattle in support of women’s fight for the vote.

Ride along with the Suffrage Special Whistle Stop Tour! Watch one segment posted daily from August 19-26 on the Washington State Historical Society and Votes for Women Centennial - Washington State Facebook pages.

Event date: 
August 19, 2020 - 12:00am to August 26, 2020 - 11:45pm
