North Berrien Historical Museum annual members-only meeting On Tuesday, Oct. 20
On Tuesday, Oct. 20, the North Berrien Historical Museum in Coloma will host the program “Rosie the Riveter & Beyond: How Women Helped Win WWII” following its annual members-only meeting and dinner.
This informative presentation, accompanied by colorful slides and artifacts, highlights women’s important contribution to victory in World War II. This presentation is exclusive to the Rosie the Riveter Association of Michigan and unique in that it covers not just one factory and location, but highlights the breadth of women in war production everywhere.
Speaker and Rosie expert Jeanette Gutierrez will delve into the many ways women did their part, including war production work, women in the armed forces, women volunteers, and celebrity influencers.
This program is reserved for society members and will follow the Annual Meeting & Dinner. The cost to attend is $25 per person. To RSVP, call (269) 468-3330 by Friday, Oct. 9.
