Mayflower Hall, 5311 O'Donnell Lane, Glen Ellen
​​
Join GPNHP founder Evelyn Rose for an engaging round-table discussion, sponsored by the Glen Ellen Historical Society, that will highlight some of the emboldened women of early Glen Ellen, home of Jack London and Mary Ellen Pleasant, just outside the town of Sonoma. I'll be joining local historians at the round-table to highlight the history of women's suffrage in California and development of the California Plan that led to victory for women in 1911. We'll also learn more about some of the courageous women of Glen Ellen at the turn of the 20th century.
