Harrison Presidential Site honors women and the vote
INDIANAPOLIS — On Aug. 26, 1920, Hoosier women won the right to vote. The Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site is celebrating the 100th anniversary of that historic moment with a new exhibit: Votes for Women: The Road to Suffrage, now open at the Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site, 1230 N. Delaware St. The exhibit highlights the hard-fought suffrage movement, as well as some of the unexpected ways Benjamin and Caroline Harrison were involved in these efforts in the decades leading up to full national suffrage for women in 1920. Guests will learn about the suffrage movement and the obstacles it overcame to earn women the right to vote. The exhibit will feature information on the Harrison family; prominent suffrage leaders; first ladies; and a collection of women’s suffrage artifacts. Suffrage-related artifacts include period postcards, photographs, ribbons, sashes, stamps and an ivory-colored flask depicting President Teddy Roosevelt wearing a sash that reads “SUFFER-E GET.” The Votes for Women: The Road to Suffrage exhibit will run through Dec. 31, 2020, and is included with the standard daily admission.
