Enjoy a fabulous girls’ or date night out with appetizers and drink as we delve into what First Ladies Abigail Fillmore, Eleanor Roosevelt, and Laura Bush all have in common — the fact that they were all teachers! You’ll get an inside look into our newly opened 2024-25 featured exhibit, “Leaders in Literacy: First Ladies as Teachers, Educators, and Librarians” at our Third Thursdays Night Out with the First Ladies. The exhibit is presented by Huntington Bank, and in this curator-led, specialized talk and tour, guests will be fully immersed in the exhibit.
For our July Third Thursday, we’ll be doing a deep dive into the educational efforts and occupations of Caroline Harrison and Helen Taft. Both of these impressive women lived throughout the Gilded Age and their lives were vastly different. Still, they were both led to education centered around the arts. Whether it was music or painting, these educators who later became First Lady of the United States furthered the lives and education of the individuals they tutored.
Doors open at 6:00PM; Program begins at 6:30PM at the National First Ladies Library & Museum (205 Market Ave. South, Canton, OH 44702). Free parking is available in the First Ladies National Historic Site parking next to the historic Saxton-McKinley House which is one block south of the Museum.
