Voices of American Farm Women

Lamson Library
Opening Events October 24, 4-6 p.m.

Voices of American Farm Women present a contemporary perspective on women in agriculture. Photographer Cynthia Vagnetti has documented women from across the U.S. whose farming techniques promote environmental responsibility, economic stability, and community well-being. The exhibition integrates the power of image and word through oral history interviews conducted with the subjects of Vagnetti's work. The 30 striking black-and-white photographs explore a diverse group of women and their relationship to the land.
