We were glad to hear the inspiring talks at the Chicago Irish consulate 5th Friday Networking Breakfast. We were also glad to see the new exhibit there, titled Blazing A Trail: Lives and Legacies of Irish-American Women today. Mother Jones is among the women featured!
Statue committee member Brigid Duffy made a presentation about our statue campaign, a short talk that was very well received.
Here are some images of the event, including panels from the exhibit that was at the Chicago Irish consulate.
