When Women Lost the Vote: A Revolutionary Story, 1776-1807

The project to create When Women Lost the Vote: A Revolutionary Story, 1776 - 1807 began in 2018. The Museum is indebted to a large group of staff members, community members, researchers, scholarly advisors, technical developers, object and image lenders, and sponsors and donors.

We are grateful for the work and support of the following organizations and individuals for their role in the creation of the exhibition, digital feature, and supporting teacher resources.

Bank of America and Comcast NBCUniversal are presenting sponsors of When Women Lost the Vote. Other support was provided by The Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development and the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution. The exhibition was also made possible in part by a major grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities: Exploring the human endeavor.
