We are partnering with the Our Town, Inc. to celebrate Rosie the Riveters of Randolph County!

Although this is a non juried exhibition, we might get creative! During WWII, there was not enough labor force to produce important needs for the defense department and women were called to work! A huge number of men were drafted and listed in armed forces, which left a shortage in the American workforce. From 1942 to 1945, over 18 million American women filled civilian and defense positions while men were off to war... Details about Rosie’s online: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosie_the_Riveter
