Clark County Historical Museum’s 2022 Speaker Series continues on Thursday, Mar. 3, with “(Her)Story: Rebel Women of Clark County” presented April Buzby (she/they). The event will occur in-person at the Clark County Historical Museum. Doors open at 5 p.m. and the event begins at 7 p.m.

Join us as Buzby tells the stories of Elizabeth Jane Harrington Irwin and Mary Ellen Bates, two extraordinary women who served during World War II. Hear about how Harrington’s story was nearly lost due to a clerical error. Experience the turmoil and concerns of Bates in the aftermath of Pearl Harbor. And learn about the legacy both women left behind.

The CCHM Speaker Series is sponsored by the Clark County Historic Preservation Commission and Versa Events (formerly Wager Audio). General admission is $5; seniors and students are $4; children under 18 are $3; and the evening is free for CCHM members, veterans, and active-duty military personnel.

Attendees are encouraged to arrive early, as seating is limited. For the safety of staff, visitors, and our families, CCHM does require proof of vaccination for admission to all CCHM events.
