Art What’s On

Detail

2018 marks the end of the international commemorations of the First World War but the role of women in the war is a story that is yet to be fully told. WomensWork100 is an international programme of activities to recognise and celebrate the working lives of women during the First World War and beyond. This display includes images from both Gateshead Local Studies’ Collections and the Imperial War Museum showing how women, often unknowingly, pressed for progress in their working lives, against the backdrop of the struggle for female rights.
