Join McKinley Presidential Library & Museum Executive Director Kim Kenney at the Canton Museum of Art for her program "Women at Work." Over the past 200 years, women have worked in a variety of professions, ranging from engraving pocket watches at Dueber-Hampden to building components for the war effort in our community’s factories in the 1940s – and everything in between! This program will explore the jobs and careers that women have held, including profiles of pioneering women in our community. This program is FREE. Attendance is limited to 40.

Presented at the CANTON MUSEUM OF ART, not the McKINLEY MUSEUM.

This program is part of collaborative programming for CMA’s exhibition, “Shattered Glass: The Women Who Elevated American Art,” and is sponsored in part by Visit Canton and ArtsinStark.

Image from Shattered Glass exhibition:
Acme Laundry in Cincinnati (detail), c. 1911. Caroline Augusta Lord (American 1860 - 1927). Oil on canvas, 25 x 30 in. On loan from the Ohio History Connection.

Lord was renowned for her paintings depicting both domestic life and global scenes. Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, during the early stages of the Civil War, Lord came of age in a city that was a crucial Union port. This period saw a significant increase in women entering the workforce to fill roles left by men fighting in the war, a trend that accelerated with the approach of World War I. Completed on-site, “Acme Laundry in Cincinnati” illustrates the rise in women working outside the home at the turn of the 20th century.
