Come meet women from the past, some famous (like Harriet Tubman or Sojourner Truth), others not so much, but all important because they lived. Each weekend is a new chapter. Come for one, two or all three, you’ll see something different each chapter. So take a journey and find out that history doesn’t have to be a mystery.
