This July, the Chautauqua living history series goes virtual as Maryland Humanities raises the voices of four notable women who took action to secure their right to vote.

Join us as Sherrie Tolliver brings Mary Church Terrell (1863–1954) to life. Born in Tennessee to two formerly enslaved business owners, Terrell helped to found the National Association for Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and the National Association for Colored Women’s Clubs (NACWC). She worked with the National Women’s Party in picketing at the White House in support of women’s suffrage.

1:00 PM: Performance
2:00 PM: Q&A with Sherrie Tolliver and Maryland Humanities Staff

The performance is free and will be available starting July 20. Please register in advance at the tickets link: you'll be entered to win fun prizes!

Presented by Maryland Humanities.
