The 28 th annual Newport Symposium, titled “Movers, Shakers, and Makers,” will shed greater light on the women who shaped and redefined American culture through the arts. This year’s theme honors the 100 th anniversary of the ratification of the 19 th Amendment to the Constitution in 1920, guaranteeing women the right to vote.
