This is an intergenerational program presented by actress and historian Tames Alan in period costume, who will tell how suffragettes influenced politics, child labor laws, and other issues of their era. We will have a reception before the performance, honoring island seniors who are 80+ in age. There will be a half hour Q & A period following the performance. Advance tickets will be available at $20 each, though our special senior honorees will be our guests and have reserved seating space in the front of the room.
This program is multigenerational, suitable for elementary grades on up. It has been given as a general history lecture, a cultural background lecture for students of social history, and as a clothing program for costume and design students.
This is an ideal and unusual way to celebrate Mother's Day.
