Current Matilda Effect Gallery Installation

The Great Famine drove women across the sea to look for work. How did they end up in Onondaga County and what kind of work were they doing when they arrived? What was life like for these women who were stuck in perpetual “GIRLHOOD?”

All ages are welcome as we work to recreate Matilda’s Garden! We will be concentrating on flowers and herbs that can be used to make tea. Bring your sunblock, gloves, and tools.
