Annual Reports
2016 was another successful year for the National Women’s History Museum. We added to our leadership, continued to grow our programs, and held successful events raising awareness of the need for a National Women’s History Museum. In November, the Congressional Commission delivered its report to Congress recommending that a National Women’s History Museum should be built on or near the National Mall in Washington, D.C. This was a pivotal moment in our movement to build the Museum.
2015 was another successful year for the National Women’s History Museum. We started the year with a bang celebrating successful passage of legislation that created the congressional commission to study the Museum and recommend a permanent site. Members of the Commission were officially confirmed in May – initiating a key stage in our efforts to gain support for a Museum on or near the National Mall.
