Celebrating 100 Years of Suffrage in New York State

Let’s kick off Women’s History Month with a showing of “Iron Jawed Angels.” A story of suffragette, Alice Paul, this film will have you inspired and at the very least, appreciative of the women who fought for the right to vote.

We will be holding this event in the community room at the Southeast Steuben County Library from 7-9pm. Doors open at 6:45. Feel free to bring your own drinks and snacks, though we will have light snacks on hand. This event is free and open to the public. $5 suggested donation.

To accompany The Suffrage Show we are hosting an ekphrastic poetry workshop led by poet, Michael Czarnecki. The workshop will be held in our gallery and the poetry created will be inspired by the suffrage art on our walls. Come express your own connection to suffrage and create a written piece to take with you in honor of the women who fought for the right to vote. All ages and genders are welcome. This event is free and open to the public, though we do have a $5 suggested donation.

We are celebrating women this month! Join us for the official launch event for the new financial wellness blog for women, Womansplaining, brought to you by John G. Ullman & Associates. The blog’s creator, Kelly Lewis, JD & CFP, will be on hand to talk finances and answer your questions. We will also be hosting “little speaks” about the benefits of investing in art, creating art and succeeding as a woman, and owning a business as a woman. After that we’ll just get to know each other and party. We’ll provide food and drinks plus the first 25 people will get a swag bag. Come ready to have some fun and learn a little and leave feeling empowered and ready to take on the world!
