CLEARFIELD – Presenter David Wulderk, local historian, will study the half-century struggle by women to gain the right to vote, the 1915 PA ballot to referendum that sparked the traveling “Women’s Liberty Bell” as a publicity effort to persuade the county’s men to vote in favor of women’s suffrage on Tuesday.
The seminar is part of Clearfield Community Life-long Learning Institute, a collaboration between the Clearfield County Area Agency on Aging Inc. and Lock Haven University Clearfield.
Courses are geared toward the interests of the baby boomers and older citizens. Typical sessions will last approximately 90 minutes and will be taught primarily by Lock Haven University faculty and community individuals with specific expertise.
All programs will be free, or very low cost. The classes will be at Lock Haven University-Clearfield’s Academic Building from 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. and are offered at no charge, but pre-registration is required. Register by calling the CCAAA at 814-765-2696.
