According to the historical society, vocalist Katherine Rhoda “will take center stage, showcasing a collection of poignant songs that emerged during this pivotal era in American history. The women’s suffrage movement served as a catalyst for a surge of artistic expression, resulting in the creation of numerous compositions and the transformation of familiar melodies with new lyrics. Songs of Women’s Suffrage provides a unique opportunity to journey back in time through the power of music, rekindling the spirit of those who fought tirelessly for women’s rights.
