Our 2013 exhibit explores the lives and accomplishments of Cornwall women from colonial days to modern times. Women in the United States today enjoy legal and social freedoms that far surpass those of women in many parts of the world, but this was not always the case. Despite the limitations they faced from Colonial days through the 20th century, numerous Cornwall women pursued their interests regardless of existing constraints. The exhibit features many of these women and explores the changing and sometimes conflicting attitudes regarding women’s rights in different eras.
