Description
Drawn from the Virginia Garrett Cartographic History Library at the University of Texas at Arlington, the maps in this exhibition span the century, from Aaron Arrowsmith’s great 1796 map of the United States to a colorful 1902 map showing not only the American West but also territories acquired by the United States in the Spanish-American War of 1898. Among the rarest of these is a large map of Mexico drawn by John H. Robinson, a medical doctor who accompanied explorer Zebulon Pike’s ill-fated western expedition in 1806–1807.

Redefining the Disfranchised: The Political Art of Nina Allender As we continue to celebrate the 88th Anniversary of Women's Right to Vote, there's a prime opportunity to view influential art from the era. Nina Evans Allender drew political cartoons for The Suffragist from 1914 into the 1920s, transforming stereotypical views of who a suffragist was. Over the years, Allender contributed more than 250 political cartoons to the movement, a number of which are on display at the Women's Museum at Fair Park. More info
