“I VOTE” is a mural by artist Maren Conrad located in Sacramento, CA at 19th and K Streets. It commemorates 100 years since women won the right to vote through the passage of the 19th amendment. The mural features portraits of 19 unfamiliar, yet highly important, suffragettes of various races, backgrounds, religions and sexual identities whose work was critical during the long fight for all women to be able to vote. Each portrait features a QR code with information about each remarkable woman, creating an outdoor museum for people to learn more about their contributions to history. Funding for the mural was raised through both crowdsourcing small donations and a generous grant from the Julie A. Soderlund Memorial Fund. A partnership with the Sacramento Contemporary Dance Theatre helped bring the mural portraits to life through choreographed vignettes. Volunteers from the community were encouraged to help bring the portraits to life.
