About the event:
Join us in the historic Dawes House for our casual lunchtime conversation series.

Why were the Evanston women who fought for women’s right to vote worried that their legal victories were not guaranteed? Lori Osborne, former director of the Evanston Women’s History Project will share the story of Catharine Waugh McCulloch and others who knew that the fight did not end when a legal victory was won.

Feel free to bring a brown bag lunch; coffee and tea will be provided.

FREE, no RSVP needed.
