Scope and Contents
This series contains planning materials for Legacy, the GGRWHC’s triennial Women’s History Month celebration. Legacy started in 1991 as an effort to recover and raise awareness of women’s history in the community and within local institutions. Their efforts brought together more than 50 local institutions representing the arts, education, health care, business, labor, religion, and social causes with exhibits and programming. It’s focus changed in subsequent years as event leadership moved from the Council’s to a separate planning committee led by co-chairs. Legacy was last celebrated by the Council in 2010, though the council continues to celebrate Women’s History Month and the legacies of women in Grand Rapids
