March of Women: In the Steps of the Suffragettes

The March of Women is a community arts project which will bring together women through a dramatic celebration of local history and social space. The project will culminate in a performance event, A Pageant of Great Women, in March 2015. The Pageant is a lost art form and we want to bring it back and to recognise and celebrate the work of the Suffrage movement, and to involve women across Glasgow.

In the Steps of the Suffragettes
This launch event will showcase our suffragette texts and Pageant related materials and will include a showing of a video of the Pageant as well as providing more information about the exciting events which we are planning.

Tuesday 2nd September, 12.30pm to 2.30pm (free)
