🎤From the Pinellas Peninsula's first settlers to the trailblazers of today, women have always had a hand in the development of St. Petersburg. Referred to as "meddling" by historians for stepping out of gender norms and into male-dominated spaces, these women were politicians, civic leaders, educators, real estate developers, business owners and more. Through photographs, info panels, artifacts and video, this exhibit shares the stories of the women who created the Sunshine City. This exhibit was made possible through funding by the Adelphi Trust Company, the first trust company in Florida founded, owned and led by women.
🎤Rui Farias is the Executive Director of the St. Petersburg Museum of History, which has  been sharing the stories of the Sunshine City for 102 years. In his podcast he and guests explore the truths, possibly the myths of the people and events that created the Sunshine City. Tune-in weekly to Radio St. Pete.com for Farias' fascinating podcast and stop by the St. Petersburg Museum of History on your next visit to the St. Pete Pier and explore the rich and unique history of the Sunshine City.  From exhibits to historic trolley and boat tours, happy hour with historian lectures and a new restaurant this fall, visit https://spmoh.com/
