Women’s Work: Live & Labor in Scott County
Opening Reception, Thursday, November 16 from 6:30-8:00pm. Free and open to the public, wine, beer, and refreshments served.
This new exhibit explores how Scott County women seized new opportunities and defined meaningful work for themselves in a society that considered women second-class citizens.
Women’s work from 1880 to 1930 - in all its forms and functions – was vital to Scott County’s prosperity. Despite this, women’s contributions were sometimes viewed as secondary to men’s. As a result, women did not receive the same respect, support, or pay as the men they worked alongside.
COMMUNITY GALLERY
Scott County People & Places
We love photos because they allow us to preserve moments in time. This gallery showcases snapshots from throughout Scott County's history, from studio portraits and weddings to candids and holiday cards, reminding us that even though Scott County's fashions, neighborhoods, and landscapes have changed over the years, the bonds of community have not.
Coming January 2024 ~ “County Critters”
Come learn and view photography of all the birds and animals that Scott County is home to! With a rich history, present, and future for wildlife, there is a lot to explore!
