Multimedia Exhibit

Our multimedia exhibit highlights the work of local feminists to gain equal rights for women and girls in our region and beyond. It includes a portrait gallery of sixteen influential leaders of the women's movement during the latter part of the 20th century, a 15-minute video based on excerpts from their oral histories, period photos and memorabilia from private collections. Featured activists include Ann Begler, Alma Speed Fox, Eleanor Smeal, Barbara Hafer and a dozen other leading feminists in southwest Pennsylvania.

The exhibit was reviewed by the Pittsburgh City Paper and the Tribune-Review.
