of Impact
The Project
The Woman’s Place Project was originally inspired by artist Judy Chicago’s iconic feminist installation, The Dinner Party. Over the years, the project has evolved into what it is today, an interdisciplinary study of the strength and contributions of women across time, culture and industry.
The Teacher
In the 1994-95 academic year, Sister Maureen Hilliard conceptualized the Woman’s Place Project and adapted it for Notre Dame’s freshman religious studies classes. Her vision was clear. Create a process and space for young women to honor other women’s contributions.
