For more than a century, the Woman’s Club of El Paso has left its social impact on the city. Before it was called the Woman’s Club of El Paso, the group of women called themselves the Child Culture Study Circle, and then the Current Events Club – led by member and past president Olga Kohlberg – who helped form and fund the state’s first public kindergarten in El Paso.
The club’s beautiful 1916 clubhouse, while not open to the public, is available for event rentals.
