CONTENTS
“Changes in Silent Angels” Suzanne Kirkpatrick and Jennifer Kern.
“Looking Ahead — Program Plans for January to June” by Berta Winiker.
“December Museum Visit” by Berta Winiker
Jamie Fletcher, Bennington Museum Curator (left rear) with AAUW members who visited the museum on Friday, November 8. Photos on display on the wall are part of “The Circus is Coming to Town” exhibit in the museum lobby. Nicholas Whitman photographed the vintage pictures in 1972 when he visited his old barn and found that few fragments of posters remained on the wall; however, a couple of lumps of circus posters, many layers thick and measuring about 3’ by 5’ each, advertised shows in Bennington, Vermont and other local towns.≈
