Virtual Lyceum: Women at the Helm

The Grange turns INSIDE / OUT this fall to provide movies, lectures, music and more via Zoom and other digital platforms. To help keep everyone healthy, we’ll be presenting great programs that you can be part of wherever you are.

Lyceum lecture #2: In conjunction with the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum’s special online exhibition, Women at the HelmSusan McClure, Executive Director of the Museum, will discuss the ways women in the Champlain Valley have challenged gender stereotypes to chart new paths forward, on and off the water.

FURTHER READING: The Maritime Museums online exhibition Women at the Helm. Also, Women Who Kept the Lights: An Illustrated History of Female Lighthouse Keepers by Mary Louise and Candace Clifford.

The Virtual Lyceum series is made possible through the generous support of the Glenn and Carol Pearsall Adirondack Foundation.

The Fall Lyceum lectures will be presented via Zoom. You can access them through your computer, smartphone, or by dialing in on a regular phone (audio only). You must register IN ADVANCE so we can email you the Zoom link. You can register for the entire series or for an individual lecture. We will record the lectures and make them available later if you can’t watch them live.
