2019 First in the Nation Suffrage Celebration
For the Fourth Annual First in the Nation Suffrage Celebration we debuted an original musical entitled: "Ringing in Votes for Women" written and directed by Madeline Hansen.
The production was staged at Clark-Grace UCC and featured members of the Clark-Grace Choir with Rev. Oliver White on the piano and Jane Wilken on the handbells. We are very grateful to Clark-Grace for partnering with us on this ambitious project.

We Ran Out of Chairs During the Reception!
"A Seat at the Table"
The evening's event featured an exhibition of visual art featuring local female painters and photographers. Chairs were used as easels to signify the need for women to have "a seat at the table" in society, government and culture.
