Mt. St. Helens  | Last week!
If you haven't seen it yet, you only have a a few more days before it moves to the Museum of History and Industry in Seattle. Learn how women's voting influenced territorial
and state history, such as prohibition laws. Through more than 200
artifacts, interactive kiosks and oral histories, learn how women from
various ethnic and economic groups achieved a voice in public life. Among the artifacts on display are famed
suffragette Susan B. Anthony's dress, cloak, glasses, inkwell, and a rare copy of the Declaration of Sentiments, the original manifest
of women's rights, all on loan from the Women's Rights National
Historical Park, the Susan B. Anthony House, and the Rochester
Historical Society. Historic photos, ephemera, and artifacts from the
Washington State Historical Society and numerous other Washington state
organizations will also be on display. |
