The Nebraska Women in Agriculture program will celebrate 40 years with a traveling photo gallery exhibition, “Legacy of Leadership: Faces of Nebraska Women in Agriculture.” The gallery aims to highlight the vital role of women in Nebraska’s agricultural landscape with a collection of portraits captured at the 2024 Nebraska Women in Agriculture Conference by renowned photographer John Noltner. Through portraits and personal stories, Noltner works to bridge divides and encourage dialogue around important issues. He has produced projects for national magazines, Fortune 500 companies, and non-profit organizations.

“We are thrilled to present this unique exhibition honoring the resilience, innovation and enduring impact of women in agriculture,” said Jessica Groskopf, Director of the Nebraska Women in Agriculture program. “Through these powerful portraits, we hope to encourage discussion about the role of women in our state’s largest industry.”

Admission to the Nebraska State Fair is $12, or $6 for youth 6-12.
