Modernizing Your Suffrage Sash

Date: Mar 24, 2020 at 4:00pm to 6:04pm
Co-Sponsored by the Women’s Center and Ohio University Libraries Suffragists, and particularly those associated with the National Woman’s Party (in the U.S.) or the Pankhurst's (in the U.K.) were known for pageantry. Suffragists utilized suffrage sashes to identify their organizations, states, and as method of delivery for their colors, which symbolized reasons as to why women should have the vote and/or their organization affiliation. In this session, participants may modernize a suffrage sash to represent their affiliation with current political or social movements. We encourage you to wear your new sash to our film showing later in the evening of Suffragette!
