9/26: Founding Mothers with Laura Keyes of Historic Voices

Founding Mothers with Laura Keyes of Historic VoicesSeptember 26 | 1-2P | DuPage County Historical Museum Auditorium | FreeThe Mothers of America aren't often mentioned - the women whose influence on the early years of the United States reverberated for centuries afterwards. While many of us remember reading something about Martha Washington and Abigail Adams, there are so many more women to admire. Whether they assisted in the years-long Revolutionary War or had one brief moment of heroism, their actions had long-lasting and nation-building effects. Learn about soldiers, writers, printers, scholars, farmers, artists, and spies - all women, and all vital to our nation's history. This Illustrated Lecture focuses on the remarkable women who had a first-hand view of the founding of our nation, and whose stories need to be shared. Join Laura Keyes as she shares their history, their bravery, and their surprising legacies. Register for this Free EventAdmission to the DuPage County Historical Museum is free.
