“Her Prospects of Election: Virginia Women in Politics” is a lobby display commemorating the inauguration of Virginia’s first woman governor in 2026. Women in Virginia have always found ways to participate in politics, but it was not until ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment in 1920 that they gained the right to be elected to public office in the Commonwealth. Items from the Library’s collections highlight women who have served Virginia in state and national office.
Free parking is available underneath the Library of Virginia at 800 East Broad Street, Richmond, Virginia.
