A new free, public exhibition specially curated for the "Great Women Live from the Great Hall" event will celebrate the achievements of pioneering women from across the arts, sciences, and civic life who have spoken on the Great Hall stage and used it as a national platform for advancing the issues and ideas that matter most to women. “Great Women Live from the Great Hall” illuminates the importance of The Cooper Union and particularly its Great Hall as a New York City landmark for public dialogue and social progress. The exhibition is on view in the street-level colonnade windows of The Cooper Union's Foundation Building along 4th Avenue on Cooper Square.
