MAISON FREETOWN IS PROUD TO HOST THE 6888 JUNE EXHIBIT! Opening reception for the month-long exhibit spotlighting the All Black, female postal battalion that served our country during WW2 starts June 3rd at 2pm. A special screening of Lafayette's own hometown hero, Major Fannie McClendon, and last surviving member from Louisiana will be shown. These women delivered hundreds of thousands of backlogged mail to soldiers during WW2. Join us as we pay tribute to these remarkable women who helped keep morale up during the war.
