Founded in 1906, The Dallas Woman’s Forum, a 501(c)3, is a century-old organization with a distinguished history of service to the City of Dallas. It is made up of notable professional and civic women leaders who are dedicated to the renovation and maintenance of the Forum’s home, the historic Alexander Mansion on Ross Avenue.
The mansion was built by C.H. Alexander in 1904 and is now one of only two surviving examples (the other being the Belo Mansion) of the majestic residences that once lined the avenue. After passing through two additional owners, it was purchased by The Dallas Woman’s Forum in 1930.
