This year marks the centenary of the enfranchisement of 8.4 million women aged 30 and above across Britain and Ireland, and the election of Constance Markievicz, the first woman MP.
To celebrate this EPIC, in conjunction with Herstory and the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, will launch a special exhibition. It highlights the lives and legacies of 21 pioneering Irish diaspora women of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries who blazed a trail in suffrage, science, sports, politics, humanitarian work and the arts. They represent just a fraction of the many women who made lasting contributions in their areas of work, but who rarely receive recognition.
The exhibition also shows the importance of collaborations and partnerships. Many of these women benefited from the support of a partner, family member or colleague.
The 'Blazing the Trail' exhibition will be on display at EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum from the 12-25 November, 2018. This exhibition will be free to attend.
