Preserving Our Unique Historical Venue
San Jose Woman’s Club is fortunate to have its landmark historical venue. Over the years, many woman’s clubs sold their historic venues because they could not afford building maintenance. The San Jose Woman’s Club is one of the largest remaining woman’s club structures in Northern California. In the last ten years, many repairs have been made to improve the venue and bring it into the twenty-first century including adding a new electrical transformer, replacement of the kitchen flooring, and the addition of a security system.Â
