March 2021
Whether they were transforming domestic hobbies into successful careers, pounding smoldering metal in blacksmith shops, or shaping the course of the nation, women played important—and unexpected roles—in Colonial Williamsburg. Join us this March for special programming as we celebrate and examine the lives and relationships of these women during Women's History Month.
