Founded in 1907 by some of the city's wealthiest women, the Woman's Club of Minneapolis is a membership-driven facility with the stated purpose of growing a "group of community leaders, business owners and professionals who use the facility for meetings and entertaining." It's weekly programs have attracted luminaries such as Helen Keller and Frank Lloyd Wright.
The Jayhawks performed in the theater here on April 26, 2002, and their live albums Live from the Women's (sic) Club 1 & 2 were released as an "official bootleg." Mike Doughty (of Soul Coughing) recorded a performance on February 27, 2002 here as well, releasing it as Smofe + Smang: Live in Minneapolis.
