Upcoming events

As an historical institution, the Susan B. Anthony Birthplace Museum centers its exhibits, educational materials, lectures, and programs primarily on historical figures, events, and daily life during the years 1820-1920, from Susan B. Anthony's birth to the passage of the 19th Amendment which bears her name. Only those subjects which provide context for the social and political climates within the years 1820-1920 will be considered for exhibits, educational materials, lectures, and programs through the Susan B. Anthony Birthplace Museum.

Susan B. Anthony - Failure Is Impossible

One-Woman Historical Performance

We at the Susan B. Anthony Birthplace Museum are delighted by Sheryl Faye’s generosity in providing her Susan B. Anthony program free of charge for the education and enjoyment of our museum community. 
 
All of us living in 2020 have an amazing resource that the suffragists did not: the internet! Thanks to virtual networks we can commemorate the histories of activism exemplified by people like Susan B. Anthony who shaped this country and changed U.S. laws for the better. 
 
Susan B. Anthony worked for over 50 years to earn women the right to vote. Even though she did not see the passage of the 19th Amendment, she never wavered in her determination. She knew the day would come when her dream - and the dreams of countless women - would come to fruition, and women would have the power to change and enact the laws which impacted their daily lives. Susan B. Anthony’s story of hard work, intellect, and perseverance is exactly the kind of inspiration we need today. ​

Someone Must Wash the Dishes: An Anti-Suffrage Satire at Ventfort Hall Mansion and Gilded Age Museum

Picture
Saturday, March 28 at 3:30 pm Victorian tea
Celebrate the Centennial of Woman Suffrage with this hilarious parody of the arguments against females voting. They sound crazy now, but for 72 years, those arguments denied women the ballot and equal rights.

Someone Must Wash the Dishes: An Anti-Suffrage Satire pairs pro-Suffragist Marie Jenney Howe’s 1913 “An Anti-Suffrage Monologue” with a lively lecture explaining why women’s voting would lead to anarchy, financial ruin, and “make every home a hell on earth.”

Performed by professional actress Michèle LaRue and directed by Warren Kliewer, Someone Must Wash the Dishes has toured coast-to-coast, garnering reviews ranging from, “Better than the best stand-ups!”
to, “I would have learned a lot more in school if she had been our teacher!” This performance is made possible thanks to the Susan B. Anthony Birthplace Museum’s “100 Events for 100 Years” initiative commemorating the 2020 Women’s Suffrage Centennial.


A Victorian tea will follow the performance. Cost to attend is $28 with an advance reservation and $32 the day of. Reservations are strongly recommended as seating is limited.

In this “riveting” program, two vibrant vintage stories spirit us off to old-time New England, where a gaggle of townswomen—and a solitary spinster—create remarkable art for everyday use.

Dorothy Canfield Fisher’s The Bedquilt reveals the suspenseful journey of an unlikely heroine: Aunt Mehetabel. Elderly and unmarried, she is taken for granted by her New England family . . . although she is “clever in the way of patching bedquilts.” As the story unfolds, Mehetabel grows, winning admiration and finding self-respect. She painstakingly devotes herself to realizing her ideal: “a pattern beyond which no patchwork quilt could go.”

The Bedquilt, written in 1906, is introduced by the gleeful account of A Quilting Bee in Our Village, penned by Mary E. Wilkins Freeman, eight years earlier. In Freeman’s little town, good food, gossip, and games make a successful bee—sewing is just the start.

Professional actress Michèle LaRue creates a dozen distinctive characters in the program, which she concludes with the surprising story behind the writing of The Bedquilt.
​
Dorothy Canfield Fisher (1879 – 1958), has been called “one of the most popular and engaging American writers of the first half of the twentieth century.” She wrote more than forty books, including translations and nonfiction, as well as novels and short-story collections.

Mary Eleanor Wilkins Freeman (1852 – 1930) spent most of her life in Randolph, Massachusetts. The people she knew and the scenes witnessed there form the background for most of her tales of New England rural life.

Michèle specializes in tales from America’s Gilded Age—“A time,” she explains, “when literature was written for the ear. Before radio, family and friends made their own home entertainment—reading aloud by flickering candle, kerosene lamp, and gaslight. Today, only the lighting has changed: adult audiences still hang on every word. Despite TV and films, the Internet and special effects, we still crave simply to listen to a tale well told.”

The Bedquilt and of A Quilting Bee in Our Village are two of thirty stories in Michèle’s repertoire of vintage TALES WELL TOLD . She has performed these, collectively, in 400 venues, nationwide. A Chicago native and University of Kansas graduate, she makes her home in the New York City suburbs. Michèle is a longtime member of both actors’ unions—Actors’ Equity and SAG-AFTRA—and a much-published theatre writer and book editor. ​

Digital Kiosk UnVeiling and Reception

Sunday August 18, 2019 | 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm

Please join us for a reception introducing the newest addition to our museum experience!

Thanks to a grant from ReDirect Media, an interactive kiosk will be installed this week with the complete and unedited volumes of Susan B Anthony’s newspaper The Revolution. In addition to digitized issues of The Revolution, the kiosk features biographical information on historical figures who worked on the newspaper, an historic term glossary, and a quiz.

This kiosk is just one of our many upcoming efforts to expand exhibits and programming to discuss, in its proper historical context, controversies from the Women's Suffrage Movement of the 19th and early 20th centuries, including Racism and Restellism. 
A huge debt of gratitude goes to SBABM Board Member Lynn Lewandowski for 5 months of tireless effort in completing this monumental project.

The publication pages are digitized to give visitors the opportunity to engage with primary sources on all of the topics covered in Anthony’s newspaper. These include editorials, articles, and letters to the editor about the suffrage causes showcased in the Susan B Anthony Birthplace Museum wall exhibits: suffrage, abolitionism, and temperance. In addition, the primary resources for the much-discussed Opposition to Restellism (opposition to abortion) suffrage position will be available to scholars, researchers, and visitors. Other outspoken social and political statements contained in their entirety are vegetarianism, war, labor, marital property rights, prostitution, poverty, and single motherhood.

Those in attendance will also have a chance to enjoy our "Missing Pieces" Garden tour highlighting women of color who have been forgotten or omitted from the Suffrage narrative, and lesser known events within the U.S. Suffrage Movement.

July 19, 2019 | 6:00 pm  "Hearthside Book Discussion"

While we may not have a live fireplace to keep us warm, we invite you to a cozy evening book discussion at The Susan B Anthony Birthplace Museum with Executive Director Cassandra Peltier and Summer Curatorial Intern Charlotte Sachs.

Our book of choice for this discussion is Frances Willard's "How I Learned to Ride the Bicycle" originally written in 1859. Frances Willard is one of the most well-known reformers of the 19th century, having served as leader of the Women's Christian Temperance Union from 1879-1898 (during which time the union was greatly influential and widely respected) as well as working in education and fighting in the Suffrage Movement.

Read more about her accomplishments on the Frances Willard House Museum's website: https://franceswillardhouse.org/frances-willard/biography/


More about the book:

"Willard took up cycling in an effort to forestall her deteriorating health in 1893, a period that coincided with the bicycle's emergence as a catalyst for sweeping social change. 'How I Learned to Ride the Bicycle' gives an appreciation of the enormity of that undertaking in the 1890s, and Willard relates her cycling tribulations with an easy wit reminiscent of Mark Twain. Willard became a passionate cyclist and in this book she encourages other women to participate in the sport." (Bicycle Guide, June 1991)

"The book is a charming and insightful parable that relates women's mastery of 'machinery' to the mastery of their own lives. . .Willard was clever enough to see a parallel in her struggle to ride a bicycle with the larger struggle of her WCTU sisters to control their lives. Corsets and long skirts curtailed the potential for freedom a bicycle could bring; women's mental bondage of dependence and subservience in Victorian society were equally prohibitive. . .Willard's subtlety in linking her bicycling experience to the broader issue of women's rights was her gift to her contemporaries, as well as to the generations of women that followed. As she wrote, 'I would not waste my life in friction when it could be turned into momentum.'" (Sacramento Bee, March 13, 1991)

"This charming essay is more than a how-to manual, for its not-so-hidden agenda encourages women to live their lives to the fullest, to engage in activities as controversial as ride a bicycle. The book contains a series of photographs in which the heretofore sedentary Willard mounts the machine and aided by friends who help her keep her balance, begins her lesson. The last photo shows her zipping down a byway, as free as the air." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune, April 7, 1991

Join The Susan B. Anthony Birthplace Museum & The Adams Historical Society in celebrating Susan B. Anthony's 199th Birthday!

Come enjoy a performance by Gwendolyn Quezaire-Presutti, portraying Harriet Tubman, followed by a Q&A and birthday cake reception. 

Free and Open to the Public!


I Can’t Die but Once   Harriet Tubman a woman of unique qualities and abilities even though she was illiterate, maintained an unblemished record of vigilance, legacy of sacrifice and struggle.  Harriet Tubman weaves a tale of truth, pain; courage and determination that take the audience into her life -enslaved - eventual escape and the United States Government soliciting her unique talent - evading capture behind enemy lines. They enlisted her as a scout and spy for the Union cause and she battled courageously behind enemy lines during the Civil War.  The elementary school version may be more palatable, but the real Tubman is far more inspiring.
