Suffrage Movement Program at Historical Society

Holiston Reporter

From Pam Kryka

On November 4, 2021, at 7:30 PM, the Holliston Historical Society will hold a Rally in the Barn at 547 Washington St., Holliston!

The women of Holliston are speaking out about the right to vote! No shrinking violets in the crowd. Come to The Rally!

As the suffrage movement spread across the country, women came out from all cities and towns, and Holliston was certainly no exception. We had many brave women who fought against opposition to the right to vote, and they ultimately won and proudly cast their votes.

The year 1920 gave women the right across the country, but did you know that women could vote in a very limited way before that year? Attend the meeting! And cheer the women onto victory and the right to vote!

Light refreshments will be served after the rally. While the barn is drafty, mask wearing is encouraged to stop the spread of COVID-19, but not mandatory.
