Choosing to Conquer: The Women Who Won the Vote

Celebrate Women’s History Month at the John F. Peto Studio Museum! New Jersey resident Nancy B. Kennedy, author of “Women Win the Vote! 19 for the 19th Amendment,” will present a slideshow of historic and current photos illustrating the 72-year fight for the woman’s vote. Not only will you hear about the national fight, but you’ll meet suffragists at the state and local level as well. Ocean County women were eager to vote! The event is at 3 p.m. on Thursday, March 21, at the museum, 102 Cedar Ave., Island Heights, NJ 08732. It is free and open to the public.
