Women’s Suffrage exhibit at Historic Vienna

http://historicviennainc.org/

Women's Suffrage exhibit has received another brand new look this year and is now focused on The Women's Rights Movement through Cartoons.  The exhibit features more than 50 political cartoons and other images collected from newspapers, postcards and other publications from the 1850's onward.

The cartoons focus on the right to vote as well as other women's rights related to parental custody, property, employment and income, divorce, economic health of the family and birth control.

Annual exhibits related to the women's rights movement will continue at the Freeman Store through 2020, which will mark the 100th anniversary of adoption of the Constitutional amendment allowing women to vote.
