Broken Bodies, Suffering Spirits Part 5: Sanitary Fair

Please join Museum director Robert Hicks as he takes you on a reminiscent journey through Civil War Philadelphia.
This series explores the staggering progression of medicine, birth of the modern hospital, and the immense public effort that brought it all to fruition.
In Part 5, Robert Hicks stops at Logan Circle to explain the magnitude of Sanitary Fairs. These massive fundraising efforts were coordinated almost entirely by women's coalitions and were the number one source of financial aid during wartime.
