The Torrington Historical Society is excited to offer several FREE virtual programs for the fall 2020 season. This series of programs is sponsored by the Connecticut Humanities. The first program, Pushing Past “No”: Overcoming Obstacles on the Path to Success, will be presented by the Connecticut Women’s Hall of Fame on Wednesday, September 9th at 6 pm, via Zoom.
In order to view this online program, attendees must first download and install Zoom. Registrants will be sent a link for the program. Attendance is limited; to register for Pushing Past No, please visit the Society’s website, www.torringtonhistoricalsociety.org.
Pushing Past “No” is inspired by some of Connecticut’s remarkable women who overcame obstacles and objections to achieve great things! Learn from the determination of women in science and medicine like Barbara McClintock, Helen Smits and Emeline Roberts Jones; women pioneers in law like Constance Baker Motley and Torrington native Patricia Wald; female sports icons like Joan Joyce and Donna Lopiano, and others from across all fields of endeavor.
