Founders’ Hall of Fame High Tea
Sunday, May 22, 2022
3 pm to 5 pm
The Dayton Woman’s Club
225 N. Ludlow St, Dayton, OH 45402
Enjoy a traditional High Tea service at The Dayton Woman’s Club and learn about the Founding Mothers of Dayton – women who left a wonderful legacy of service to our community.
In 1889, the women of Dayton founded the Women’s Literary Club. Other women’s clubs soon followed — each with their own purposes that benefited our community including patriotism, scholarships, child welfare, interest-free loans for young women, housing, and shelter for runaway children.
Some of the Living Legacy Ladies from The Dayton Woman’s Club will be in attendance to share their stories as well.
Our guest speaker, T. Douglas Toles, Creative Director of Toles Media, will share the next step of literature with our own Empowered Women, “History of Dayton Women and The Dayton Woman’s Club”, a book by Children’s Historical Publishing.
