Women lifting women is the goal of the Windows for Women project
In honor of Women’s History Month, Maplewood is once again hosting the Windows for Women project. For the month of March, business owners in Maplewood’s business districts will showcase the works of women artists in windows or inside their businesses.
Did You Know? Women’s History Month started as Women’s History Week?
Every year, March is designated Women’s History Month, the month is set aside to honor women’s contributions in American history.
Women’s History Month began as a local celebration in Santa Rosa, California. The Education Task Force of the Sonoma County (California) Commission on the Status of Women planned and executed a “Women’s History Week” celebration in 1978. The week was chosen to coincide with March 8, International Women’s Day. In the years that followed, the movement spread across the country as other communities initiated their own Women’s History celebrations eventually to last all March long.
In Maplewood, in recognition of Women’s History Month, residents and guests may enjoy a community-wide art gallery, all while supporting our local businesses.
