1915 Fourth of July Parade “Living Flag”
In 1915, 182 women marched in the formation of a United States Flag to celebrate the passage of women’s right to vote in Nevada and to support passing the national 19th Amendment, which passed in 1920, giving women in our nation the right to vote. On October 31, 2020, the Nevada Women’s History Project will re-enact the 1915 Fourth of July parade entry pictured above in Carson City, Nev.
Please join us to make this happen. We need 180+ women to say “yes” to be a part of this history-making parade entry!
You must be able to walk two miles on the level paved surface of Carson Street. A fee of $11 includes your hat, costume and commemorative memorabilia.
