Montclair and the Suffrage Movement
Wednesday, November 20, 1:30 PM
Presented by
Michael Farrelly, Montclair Town Historian
In honor of the 100th Anniversary of women's right to vote, we have asked our town historian, Michael Farrelly, to give a presentation on the history of women's suffrage in general, and its impact on Montclair in particular. Special attention will be paid to Lucy Stone, who was the founder of the American Woman's Suffrage Association. She lived on North Mountain Avenue, Montclair, with her husband, Henry Blackwell.
Stone, along with Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, was credited with organizing the women's right to vote movement. Their courage and persistence will be honored at this presentation. This program is open to the public for $5 at the door.
Book Discussion Group
Thursday, November 21, 1:30 PM

For the Nov 21 meeting, we will be discussing "Scythe," by Neal Shusterman.
