The League of Women Voters Minnesota created a traveling exhibit to recognize the organization’s mission and history of the past century.  The goals of the 12-panel exhibit are to: 1) Recognize and celebrate a century of activism by LWV Minnesota; 2) Recall our history through a lens of diversity, equity and inclusion; 3) Activate visitors to educate themselves and to vote; 4) Remind visitors that democracy depends on their participation; 5) Empower visitors to act in defense of democracy.
