Suffrage Celebration Open House

The public is invited to a Suffrage Celebration Open House, Sunday, October 13th,
2 to 5 pm, at the Patton-Parker House, 95 Charlotte Street, in Asheville.

Experience our local suffrage history in the house where the Women’s Suffrage Movement
in North Carolina began!

Discover the stories of the often overlooked African-American Suffragists!

Enjoy the simple pleasures of the Suffrage Era with:

  • Fabulous hats by Sandra Suber of Ianodell’s Hat Shop.
  • Croquet on the lawn with Black Mountain Croquet Club’s Jim Seward and a fantastic city view! Bring a lawn chair.
  • Suffragette model by costumer Sandra McDaniel for picture taking.
  • Hors d’oeuvres, ice cream from The Hop! (Discount scoop-ons for those in period attire).

This is a free event—No admission charged (donations are always welcome).
And did we mention…free parking in the lot next door!
