Journey to the Vote: Pop-Up

 

 Journey to the Vote Pop-Up exhibit will be on display in the Kentucky Room through July 16th

In celebration of the 100^th anniversary of the 19^th amendment’s passage which granted U.S. women the right to vote, an exhibit featuring material from WKU’s Library Special Collections, the Kentucky Museum, and the National Archives is on display in the Kentucky Room of the Kentucky Building through July 16.  The exhibit features material about local suffragist and author Eliza Clavert Hall and about Victoria Woodhull, the first woman to run for U.S. President.  This material is supplemented by exhibit panels prepared by the National Archives titled “Rightly Hers Pop-Up Display” which discuss the suffrage movement at the national level.
