Saturday, September 15th, 2-4 pm.
The setting: America, 1943. Hear a testimonial from Rosie Niemiec (historical interpreter Stacy Flora Roth), a housewife who decided to do her bit for the war effort (and surprise her husband) by taking a job as a welder in a shipyard. This intriguing session features a display of period artifacts and ephemera, a discussion of women's participation on the Homefront, and an opportunity for the audience to share memories, memorabilia, and personal and family stories of the Second World War.
Stacy Flora Roth, of the company "History on the Hoof," is a freelance museum educator, public speaker, vocalist, and performance artist whose specialty is educational presentations on themes in American History.
