Celebrate Women's History Month

Dear Dominic


Next month we will be celebrating Women's History Month, and to mark the occasion, we are launching our new virtual exhibition, Votes for Women. During 2018-19, a landmark temporary exhibition at the Museum of London marked the centenary of votes for (some) women and revealed the extraordinary struggle to achieve female representation in parliament. Now you can explore the remarkable history of the Suffragettes and the Deeds Not Words campaign's legacy through videos, key collection items, and much more in this free online exhibition.


We have also created a new Women's History Month hub page with lots of resources, videos and articles for you to delve further into women's history.


We hope to see you very soon,

The Museum of London
