LINCOLN: WOMANHOOD
Please click on one of the images below to step into their museum…
For 2026’s International Women’s Month, Lincoln offered up a month long, city wide, museum based, celebration of… Womanhood.
Step into the museum of 26 female identifying Lincoln residents and marvel in the richness, diversity, and authenticity of Womanhood in all its Lincoln glory.
Across the month it will span four iconic ‘Lincoln’ locations in this human extravaganza that Mother Nature herself would be awfully proud to call her own.
