On June 10, 1919, Illinois was the first state to ratify the 19th Amendment, largely due to the efforts of a group of Oak Park and River Forest activist women. Visit the Oak Park River Forest Museum on Wednesday, June 5 from 7:00-8:30pm, to hear Jeanne Schultz Angel, Executive Director of the Nineteenth Century Charitable Association, and Mary Ann Porucznik, OPRF Museum and Nineteenth Century CA Board member, discuss local women who made contributions to the effort that changed America. Museum entry is $5.00 for non OPRF Museum members.
