Maine women, armed with pen and paper, have influenced the outcome of the Civil War, mobilized women\u2019s political and domestic rights and powered the creation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. They have upset the status quo again and again. Many of them \u2014 not only the well-known \u2014 have made this world a better place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhibition is based on the book&nbsp;A Gateless Garden: Quotes by Maine Women Writers&nbsp;by Bakewell and Michaels, which contains 100 quotations and 100 photographs. Fifty-three of the 100 pairs will be on display as well as the book of which they are a part. The interplay of the words and photographs presented creates a synergy that celebrates the essence of place, women\u2019s lives and the singular world that is Maine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of the women writers featured have connections to Maine. Most have lived in the state for many years \u2014 some for their entire lives \u2014 and have produced in Maine the works that are quoted in the exhibition. Writers whose quotations are featured include Harriet Beecher Stowe, Louise Bogan, Edna St. Vincent Millay and Rachel Carson.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BY PHOTOGRAPHER\u00a0KERRY MICHAELS, EDITOR\u00a0DR.
