Description:
Celebrate Radical Women with our month long Women’s History Month Events at your Missoula Public Library. View our display cases highlighting radical Montana woman, Jeanette Rankin, with books and artifacts from our Montana Room. We will also have an art display featuring watercolor interpretations of Jeanette Rankin’s portrait created by students of Missoula Public Library’s watercolor painting class. Visit our curated displays of library books by and about women and transgender women. Write a book review of your favorite book by or about women, and have it displayed in the library throughout March. Attend our March Cheap Date Night where we will be showing the movie Harriet: The incredible true story of Harriet Tubman, and her quest to lead hundreds of slaves to freedom on the Underground Railroad. On March 28th, join presenter Mary Jane Bradbury and Missoula Public Library for a Humanities Montana sponsored Community Conversation celebrating the 100th Anniversary of women’s right to vote. Finally, don’t miss our special Children’s Storytimes that focus on radical girls and women! While you are visiting the library, take the opportunity to grab a handpicked list of books, movies & music to celebrate radical women all month long. March 1- March 31
