Look for us at upcoming parades, events and bringing you new programs that are reflective of today which will launch us into making history for another 100 years. 

Sonoma County 2020 Women's Suffrage Project broke ground on our yearlong centennial celebrations throughout Sonoma County on Sunday, December 8th and it was a fabulous celebration filled with suffrage history and modern suffrage calls to action.
