How is women’s heritage celebrated in Scotland?
At this illustrated talk, Morag Smith from Glasgow Women’s Library chats about how women’s history projects have developed around Scotland and how Glasgow Women’s Library can support exciting and innovative new heritage projects, such as Making Her Mark. There will also be a short tour of this vibrant interactive exhibition, which reveals some of the stories uncovered by women from Renfrewshire. You’ll find not just women from the past, but also the story of how the project kept growing through Covid and lockdown. Discover tales of resilience and creativity and how women from today have rescued the stories of forgotten women from the past and ensured they are celebrated into the future.
This exhibition was created in partnership with RAMH and Kairos women+ volunteers. Thanks to funding from the Renfrewshire Culture, Heritage and Events Fund. GWL’s national outreach work is funded by the Scottish Government.
