Abstract
This thesis contains in depth instructions as to the research and creation of the They Made Their Voices Heard! exhibit. Women’s suffrage in Arkansas has been an area of Arkansas history that has not been overly studied. Arkansas became the first southern state to give women the right to vote when in 1917 women received the right to vote within primaries. Florence Brown Cotnam, Bernie Babcock, James Mitchell, and Charles Brough are all studied within this process paper and exhibit for their contributions to the women’s suffrage movement in Arkansas. The process paper describes the elements that were involved in the exhibit and research, from the aesthetics of the room in which the exhibit is displayed to the primary sources used in the research.
