Meet Susan B. Anthony at the Spellman Museum
October 23 @ 10:30 am - 11:30 pm
To celebrate the 101st anniversary of the nineteenth amendment to the US constitution, actress Sheryl Faye will bring to life Susan B. Anthony, one of the most famed suffragettes in American History, in a 45-minute performance at the Spellman Museum of Stamps & Postal History on the Regis College campus in Weston. Questions will be welcomed. The program starts at 10:30am on Saturday, Oct. 23 with doors opening at 10am. The program is suitable for ages 7 to adult. Children can take home stamps featuring famous American women.
Faye has previously appeared as Sally Ride and Amelia Earhart at the Museum.
After her performance, representatives of the Boston and Weston Post Offices will hold a brief ceremony of an unveiling of last year’s commemorative stamp celebrating the amendment’s adoption.
The Museum also has an exhibit that traces the history of women’s suffrage using stamps from colonial days until the present.
Admission is $5 for adults, $3 for seniors and children. For more information email to [email protected] or call 617-784-5838.
This program is supported in part by a grant from the Weston Cultural Council.
