Suffragist Tea Party

Join us for a Suffragist Tea Party on Saturday, July 25, at 2 p.m. in commemoration of the ratification of the 19th Amendment.

This event will feature tea party snacks and beverages to recognize Arkansas’ unique and progressive place in the history of women’s fight for equality.

Beginning in 1917, Arkansas allowed women to vote in primary elections. At the time, it was the only non-suffrage state to grant this right. On July 28, 1919, Arkansas became the 12th state to ratify the 19th Amendment, and the first Southern state to do so.

Admission to this event is $65 per person and includes food and beverages.

This festive celebration is hosted as part of the Clinton Presidential Center’s America250 commemorations, honoring our nation’s history and recognizing important lessons to improve its future.

Period attire is not required but encouraged.
