In our annual partnership with the Vermont Historical Society to honor Women's History Month, Vermont Commission on Women will present a free evening roundtable discussion, “Women of the Counterculture Movement in 1970s Vermont” on Wednesday, March 22nd at 6:00 p.m. at the Vermont History Center, Barre. Many of the features that are today considered quintessentially Vermont – politics, local food movements, offbeat culture – have origins in this period.

This FREE round table conversation event will be moderated by director of the Vermont Commission on Women (VCW), Cary Brown and will feature Bridget Downey-Meyer, Louise Andrews, Melinda Moulton and Verandah Porche, reflecting on what brought them into this movement, what their experience was like, and what lasting impact it’s had on their own lives and on Vermont society. Enjoy stories of this time, and learn through the lens of these women who took part.
