SUMMARY:Portland Women History Makers
DESCRIPTION:Tate House Museum Presents â€śPortland Women History Makersâ
 €ť by Dugan Murphy\nPortland---Itâ€™s time again for lectures in the bac
 kyard of the Tate House Museum! Join us on June 28th&nbsp\;at 7:00 PM fo
 r â€śPortland Women History Makersâ€ť with Dugan Murphy. Locally-raised 
 historian Dugan Murphy shares unforgettable stories about Portlanders of
  all backgroundsâ€”told with heart\, humor\, and humanity---through his 
 company Portland by the Foot\, which offers walking tours of Portlandâ€™
 s downtown. He is a graduate of the Portland History Docent Program\, fo
 rmer executive director of Maine Archives &amp\; Museums\, and a curious
  and enthusiastic tour guide. After several years as the most requested 
 tour guide at another local tour company\, Dugan decided to create his o
 wn version of walking tours\, with even more intimate\, surprising\, and
  delightful experiences.\nHis lecture at Tate House\, â€śPortland Women 
 History Makers\,â€ť will focus on women who have contributed to the area
 â€™s history. Whether running the factories or running for office\, Port
 land women boldly shaped our cityâ€™s culture while continually moving t
 he country toward equal rights. Drawing from over 300 years of history\,
  Dugan will share stories of women who achieved remarkable things\, like
  the Indigenous Penobscot performer who re-framed immigration policy\, t
 he Chinese immigrant and laundress who won American Mother of the Year\,
  the white tavern keeper who went up against the British Navy\, and the 
 enslaved Black maid who abolished slavery statewide. You'll leave with a
  greater appreciation for the charm and depth of a city that was almost 
 lost were it not for the impact of womenâ€™s collective energy and passi
 on. Wednesday\, June 28\, at 7:00 PM in Tate House Museumâ€™s backyard\,
  1270 Westbrook Street Portland\, ME. Join us for this exciting lecture\
 , heard from the comfort of a lawn chair\, while enjoying summer in Main
 e!\nTickets purchased in advance are $12 General Admission and $10 for T
 ate House Museum members. At the door prices are $15 General Admission a
 nd $12 for THM members. Advance tickets can be found at&nbsp\;www.tateho
 use.org&nbsp\;Attendees are asked to bring their own lawn chairs or blan
