Just a quick reminder today about a special event being hosted jointly by the Webster Museum and Webster Public Library this Thursday afternoon.
In honor of National Women’s History Month, the Museum and the Library have created an interesting program where you can meet several well-known Webster women, past and present.
At the program, scheduled for Thursday March 30 at 3 p.m. at the Webster Public Library, you’ll meet:
- Victoria Woodhull, a leader in the women’s suffrage movement, stockbroker, and the first woman to ever run for president;
- Erva Wright, Monroe County politician whose active role in civic service at the local, county and state levels earned her the title First Lady of Webster;
- Esther Dunn, a lifelong Webster resident and long-time Webster teacher, best known for the book she published in 1971, Webster Through the Years;
- Agnes Semmler, a farm wife who raised her family on Shoecraft Rd;
- Ginny Nguyen, Town of Webster councilwoman;
- and me, Missy Rosenberry
Each character will speak for about 5 to 6 minutes, describing a little about their lives and accomplishments. As for me, I’ll be telling you more about how I came to create the Webster on the Web blog and how it has become part of the fabric of the Webster community.
The program is free, but registration is required. So click here to sign up and please join us for what should be a very interesting presentation.
The Webster Public Library is located at 980 Ridge Rd., at the back of Webster Plaza.
