🕰️ 2:00 pm start
đź’˛ FREE Community Event
🎟 Open to the public
📍179 Texas Palmyra Highway, Hawley, PA
Join the Wayne County Historical Society for a powerful and inspiring program exploring Pennsylvania’s role in the women’s suffrage movement.
We will screen the 19-minute documentary
Finding Justice: The Untold Story of Women’s Fight for the Vote, ** followed by a Q&A with filmmaker and Justice Bell Foundation Executive Director Amanda Owen. **
This compelling film is part present-day detective story and part historical account, tracing the journey of the Justice Bell, a 2,000 lb. bronze replica of the Liberty Bell that toured Pennsylvania in 1915 and became an icon of the American women's suffrage movement. The clapper was chained and muted to represent the silencing of women's voices. Their story shines a light on courage, resilience, and a movement that reshaped American history
đź•’ Program Duration: Approximately 1 hour
👥 Designed for ages 10 and up
This is a meaningful opportunity to learn about the women who refused to be left out of the history books — and the one-ton bronze bell that became an icon of change.
Bring a friend, bring your family, and join us for an afternoon of history, inspiration, and conversation.
Celebrating our history together, presented by the Wayne County Historical Society, with support from Women in Philanthropy and the Wayne County Community Foundation.
