Drawing on archives from GWL and MayDay Rooms, this exhibition revisits the peace movement’s material history, bringing it in conversation with our increasingly militarised world. It traces underrepresented narratives in the movement, including the changing role of gender, race, class, and sexuality, the building of international solidarity networks, the intersection of liberation struggles with demilitarisation campaigns, and the diversity of its tactics. The exhibition combines printed materials, banners, audio interviews and video footage.
Glasgow Women’s Library is wheelchair accessible, with lifts to the first floor and the Mezzanine Floor. We have accessible toilets and all the bathrooms are individual closed stalls and are gender neutral. Our larger Events Space is fitted with an induction loop. A portable induction loop is also available.Find more information on Accessibility at GWL or contact us and we will be very happy to offer assistance.
