NYC (P) Sunday Walking Tour of Greenwich Village with Lucie Levine (11am ET)

About this event

Sunday, October 15, 2023, 11:00 AM -1:00 PM

Join us on Sunday morning for a Private Walking Tour of Greenwich Village with a focus on the history of Women’s Health, led by Lucie Levine, TTNers’ favorite tour guide.

Let's look back at the history of women's health in Greenwich Village, once home to this nation's first female physician, its earliest visiting nurses, its first female public health expert, its leading birth control advocates, its queer and trans health pioneers and even its largest pre-Roe abortion referral service (founded by Village-based clergy!).


This tour will delve into women's health advocacy beginning as early as the 1840s, and consider how it intersected with many other fights for equality being waged in the Village and around the nation.

After the tour you can join fellow TTNers for (pay-your-own) lunch at a nearby restaurant.

NOTE: Walking Tours are rain or shine, and will not be re-scheduled unless a National Weather Service Emergency is issued.
Please wear comfortable shoes, bring water and an umbrella, if there is a chance of rain.
