Enjoy performances throughout the day by four Mill City Museum History Players, portraying 19th and 20th century women of Minneapolis and the surrounding region. Explore the museum exhibits for more stories of women who contribute to Minnesota history and Minneapolis' flour milling, like the female flour packers who began working at the Washburn A Mill in 1902. Participants can also dress up and have their picture taken as a 1950s "mill girl" and make their own paper hat like female flour packers wore in 1919.
