Photography & Protest: Women as Change Makers
Talk at Museum in the Park, Stroud
Thursday 20 March 14:00 – 15:00; tickets £5.00
NOTE THIS EVENT IS NOT AT THE HUNDRED HEROINES MUSEUM
From the early suffragette photographers to today’s activist artists, photography has been shown to be a powerful way for women raise awareness of social injustices and campaign against them.
Join us for a journey through the 20th century and discover how the medium has been used as a form of protest and, in many cases, how activism led to changes in legislation.
From the streets of Edwardian London to contemporary California via Nazi Germany, see how women have made an impact.
