The new exhibition in the Winship Gallery will be called "Women of Vision" It opens on Wednesday, May 28 with an Opening Reception from 6:30 - 8:30 PM. All are welcome, but reservations are suggested. The exhibition, being planned by the Women's Heritage Committee, will run through April 30, 2009. The Committee's next meeting is Saturday, April 12 at 2:00 PM at the museum.
The exhibition will illustrate the role of women in American life, as portrayed in the histories of 16 remarkable Allston-Brighton women and women’s organization, histories that collectively span some 250 years. These individuals and organizations reflect, in the narrow compass of Allston-Brighton history, the wider struggle that women have waged over the years against gender discrimination and inequality upon a broad range of economic, social, cultural, governmental, and religious battlegrounds.
