Women's Work: the Untold Story August 4, 2011

Developed with the assistance of local historian and guest curator Frances Gagnon, this exhibition describes the challenges and accomplishments of a dozen women from Springfield's past.

Features photos, video, portraits, archival documents, collections objects and more.
