One of the highlights of developing the Speaking Out exhibition, and now in developing our learning resource for young people, has been looking through old Women’s Aid newsletters and publications held in the Scottish Women’s Aid archive at Glasgow Women’s Library for illustrative material.
These newsletters and publications from the 1970s, 1980s and even the early 1990s (before computers took over the world) are full of the most wonderful hand-drawn artworks. There have been so many incredibly talented women involved with Women’s Aid over the years! Which one’s your favourite?
Today, I thought I would share some of these fantastic drawings. If you know the artist of any of the uncredited works please let me know in the comments so credit can be given where it’s due.

Hands of sisterhood was drawn by Mary Patrick of Glasgow Women’s Aid. It’s my handwriting!
