The archive exhibit 100 Years of the Women’s Vote marks this anniversary, introducing visitors to the women and men who were at the forefront of the suffrage movement. Stressing the importance of enfranchisement in a thriving democracy, the exhibit highlights the women’s movement over the past 100 years, considering some of the current battles for equality we still face here in the United States, with a focus on women activists in our local South Bay community.
