Meet at the Concord Town House to celebrate an auspicious moment in our history as March 29th marks exactly 145 years to the day that Louisa May Alcott -- famed authoress of Little Women and hundreds of other literary works -- became the first woman of Concord to cast a vote in a Town election! Join in the excitement within the very room in the Town House where voting took place, support the brave band of 19 other women who also voted for School Committee on that triumphant day, and revel in the newfound empowerment these women achieved by actively participating in democracy as never before! Leading the march to the ballot box will be Jan Turnquist -- Executive Director of Louisa May Alcott’s Orchard House, world-renowned Living History portrayer of Miss Alcott, and a Concord resident -- who will also speak to and lead a discussion of the meaning of suffrage for Concord residents then and now. Also participating in the voting re-enactment will be Concord's own Joe Palumbo, portraying Judge Ebenezer Rockwood Hoar, and hopefully, you as well! This event is offered in honor of Women's History Month and Concord250 celebrations, and is dedicated to the ideals of liberty, personal agency, and universal suffrage. Free and open to all; light refreshments served.
