Led by Neysa Page-Lieberman, Monumenta Artistic Director and Michelle Duster, Public Historian and author, with Associate Curator Marcela Andrade Serment. We are going city by city to commemorate women's suffrage–the largest civil rights movement in U.S. history.‍ ‍

Our large-scale murals in U.S. cities document women’s activism which benefited over half the population. Each mural features courageous women who represent the diversity of those who fought for women’s rights to full citizenship in the U.S. democracy. The commissioned public artworks feature location-specific historic suffrage leaders and nods to contemporary people and their continued legacy of activism.

We kicked off with the Chicago Suffrage Mural Series—the first public art dedicated to the suffrage movement in Chicago and the largest series on this subject in the country. Fall 2026 we unveil new works in New York City with lead artist Sam Kirk followed by Portland, OR with artist Addie Boswell.

This work strengthens the representation of diverse women-identifying histories, inspires deeper learning, and celebrates collective action towards civil rights and gender equality.

Thank you to our supporters! Eternal gratitude to our Grand Marshall Sponsor, The Harnisch Foundation, for their generous financial support and strong belief in this work. Thank you also to our Procession Sponsor, Monumental Women, our Torchbearer Supporter, Pierre Hollis, and all friends of the movement!
