Walking Tour: Herstoric Call Boxes



Explore unique street art as we visit old callboxes converted to share the story of eight significant women in our city's history

Sep 07, 2024. 10am-12pm

Join us for a walking tour of the converted call boxes installed in downtown DC. While call boxes were once part of the city's emergency services system, today many stand as public art installations. Eight boxes have recently been converted to share the story of eight significant women in our city's history, ranging from Katherine Graham to Alice Paul, Mary Church Terrell to Julia Ward Howe. This tour will make a quick stop at each call box and we'll learn about the women who helped shape our nation.
