Rosie the Riveter - CANCELED

This amazing presentation is rescheduled for March 2023. Unfortunately, the February meeting was canceled due to COVID-19. During World War II 310,000 American women worked to produce aircraft for the war effort and none was more famous than Kentucky’s Rose Leigh. Kelly Brengelman will portray Rose Leigh, a young girl from Science Hill, Kentucky who worked as a riveter during World War II, earned her pilot’s wings, and went on to inspire many as "Rosie the Riveter. Kelly, who performs as part of the Kentucky Humanities Council’s Chautauqua program, is a Woman’s Club favorite. Kelly has also portrayed Madeline McDowell Breckinridge for Woman’s Club.
