Each year in October, to coincide with Women’s History Month new inductees are added to the City of Thunder Bay Women’s History Month online exhibit. The exhibit recognizes and celebrates women of all ages who played important roles in the history and development of our city.

Four new inductees have been added to the online exhibit this year:

  • Dorothy Mary Pickup
  • Mildred Jane Foster
  • Jean Morrison
  • Lynda McKeown

“This web exhibit is a wonderful way to honour and highlight the remarkable women that have helped shape our city.” says Christina Wakefield, City Archivist for the City of Thunder Bay. “Each year we look forward to discovering more about the women from our community and celebrating their accomplishments.”

The Women’s History Month exhibit can be viewed at: thunderbay.ca/WomensHistoryMonth
