The National Trust's Dunham Massey and Women in Print present: Women and Power at People’s History Museum (PHM), City Centre 13 September 2018 Entrance is free

Ahead of the Women In Words Weekend Poetry Festival at Dunham Massey, hear from The National Trust’s Women in Print and join a workshop led by artist Lucy Ketchin and create a banner that tells your individual story. With a love of colour and craft, Lucy Ketchin works with paper and fabric to create forms and shapes exploring nature, folklore and the everyday.

This is part of People’s History Museum’s year long programme exploring the past, present and future of representation and an after hour Radical Late event – every second Thursday each month PHM galleries are open all evening until 8.00pm for you to explore, with a regular programme of exciting and quirky happenings.

Look out for our Radical Late’s guide, coming very soon.
