The Rochester Museum & Science Center’s new exhibition featuring over 200 Rochester and Haudenosaunee women is open.
“The Changemakers: Rochester Women Who Changed the World” is a community-curated exhibition that aims to inspire and empower the community to be change-makers by sharing stories of regional innovators just like them.
“The Changemakers” is open in the Riedman Gallery and adjacent spaces on the third floor of the Museum, 567 East Ave., through spring 2021. The exhibition stretches across 7,000 square feet and shares authentic, and lesser-known narratives of women from the Rochester region and sovereign Haudenosaunee Confederacy who left their mark on history and the world.
