The Smithsonian American Women’s History Museum expands the story of America through the often-untold accounts and accomplishments of women—individually and collectively—to better understand our past and inspire our future. 

Through new scholarship, diverse viewpoints, and innovative forms of exhibition, storytelling, and participation, we inspire the next generation to create a more equitable world.

Women’s history is American history. This is the story of America.
