The Women in the NAACP and partners will host a march at the Chrysler Museum of Art Saturday to celebrate the legacy of Ida B. Wells and the importance of voting.
Wells was a pioneering Black journalist and an activist for women’s rights and the suffrage movement.
Walk participants are asked to wear white and comfortable shoes. The event is nonpartisan, so leave any political signs at home.
The walk begins at 10 a.m. in front of the museum at 1 Memorial Place in Norfolk.
Parking will be available at the Harrison Opera House, 160 West Virginia Beach Blvd., Norfolk.
