One week from tonight, we'll present the first of two performances of "Still Rising," a concert featuring a multimedia presentation of Andrea Ramsey's "Suffrage Cantata." The cantata tells the story of American women's fight for the right to vote, largely through the words of the women themselves.
The fight was waged locally by the Pensacola Equal Suffrage League, commemorated in Pensacola with two historic markers on the National Votes for Women Trail, a project of the National Collaborative for Women's History Sites.The first was dedicated in November 2022 by the Collaborative and the UWF Historic Trust and stands in front of the Pensacola Museum of History. Formerly Pensacola City Hall, the building was a meeting place for the league in the early 1900s.
Join us for our concert next Friday evening and Saturday afternoon in the UWF CFPA (Center for Fine and Performing Arts). You can learn more and buy tickets here: https://www.purplepass.com/events/298111-still-rising-mar-28th-2025
