This festival of talks, exhibitions and workshops is organised through a partnership between Glasgow Women’s Library, Edinburgh City libraries and the Bonnie Fechters women’s group. This year the theme is women and words – from poetry and performance, blogging and key works by iconic feminist writers to blogs, diaries, and journals. You can join in and create your own words or come along and hear from and read about other women of the past and present.
