Lancaster International Women's Day 2010: Exhibitions

The 2010 Lancaster International Women’s Day (IWD) celebrations kick off today as two exhibitions of women’s art open in the City Centre. Things my Mother Didn’t Tell Me (12 Feb – 8 March) at the Dukes Gallery is exactly what it says on the tin. Women at Work and Play (12 Feb – 12 March) at the Gregson Centre pays imaginative tribute to women on many fronts.

A third exhibition, Women and Food will run from 1 – 15 March at the Whale Tail Cafe.

Further events include a Rubbish Fashion Show, (with prep workshops for entrants), a grand Women’s Information Day, an exciting theatre season at The Dukes, brilliant comedienne Lucy Porter, the International Women’s Peace Service and breakfast.

One thought on “Lancaster International Women's Day 2010: Exhibitions

  1. Alot of people don't realise that the majority of people hungry around the world are women… and yet these women produce 60-80% of the food! The answer to hunger, I really believe lies with women. You can send a message of solidarity to women across the world for International Women’s Day at http://www.wfp.org/women
