MODERNIST HEROINES (2011)

A project created through a collaboration between Manchester Modernist Society,  The Loiterer’s Resistance Movement, and The Shreiking Violet,  Thanks also to Manchester Metropolitan University.

A specially published 'zine and walking tour takes inspiration from ten remarkable women with connections to Manchester and the region. Whilst celebrating their achievements, we will also uncover hidden histories and power relations which have shaped the modern city.  We will share tales of explorers, aviatrixes, architects, artists and more to reveal the valuable role women have played in defining and resisting dominant perspectives of the city.
