A collection of photographs and memorabilia showcasing women’s physical activity at U-M. From early and restrictive physical education to D1 athletics, the exhibit explores early participatory nature of women’s movement. Despite inequities faced by women regarding physical activity, women have danced, flexed, fought, and championed for future women athletes at the university and beyond!

Panel discussion begins at 4:00 PM in Lane Hall 2239 with reception to follow in Lane Hall Gallery at 5:30 PM. Seating is limited, please RSVP if you plan to attend the panel. https://goo.gl/HDkM89
