The basket weave ceiling and green tile floor adorn the solarium. They are a beautiful example of the arts & crafts influenced details put into the home by Grace Hoffman White.

12. The Women’s History and Resource Center
When GFWC moved into 1734 N Street, we began using the room above the carriageway to store documents and conduct research. Since 1984, this room has stayed true to its original intentions, when it was opened as the Women’s History and Resource Center. Today, it houses the GFWC archives, which date back to 1890.

13. GFWC Guest Rooms
In 1738 GFWC has five rooms and nine beds dedicated to housing our visiting clubwomen. This house is your home!
