From visionaries like Harlem School of the Arts founder Dorothy Maynor, who created a safe space for artistic creativity to thrive, to suffragettes like Maud Malone who marched the streets of Harlem for equality, the pivotal contributions of trailblazing women have definitively shaped Uptown and beyond. Standing on their shoulders and carrying that spirit of resilience are modern-day changemakers and innovators who have a shared mission of empowering and uplifting the local community. In observance of Women's History Month, Columbia Neighbors has curated a collection of stories and resources celebrating the brilliance of women Uptown.
