This community-driven exhibit highlights the notable women of the Rainy Lake District who have made a lasting impact in our region. Nominations have been submitted by community members, and the collection continues to grow. If you know of a remarkable woman, we invite you to share her story so she can be included in this celebration. On display from August through September, extended until mid-October.
