This event is no longer on sale.

Friday November 3

5:00 PM  –  7:00 PM

Celebrate Veteran’s month by taking a trip to the front lines of WWI in the Lincoln Penny Films documentary, The Hello Girls. Based on the book by Elizabeth Cobbs, this documentary follows the lives of the 223 women who were sent to France as telephone operators to help win the Great War and their struggle for veteran status upon return. Guests will enjoy a private exploration of the Our Stories, Our Service exhibit at the Kentucky Historical Society, watch the film with complimentary popcorn, and partake in a Q&A following the film with the executive producer and director of the film, James Lambert. Join us as we reflect on the service of these women and journey through their fight to expand the definition of ‘serving one’s country.’
