209 Women Details
To mark 100 years since some women achieved the right to vote, an all-female photography initiative is creating new portraits of all 209 women MPs, shot exclusively by women photographers. These will be displayed in a free public exhibition in Parliament, opening 100 years to the day that the first women cast their votes in the 1918 general election. The exhibition is curated by Hilary Wood (Founder/Director of ‘209 Women' and photographer), Tracy Marshall (Director of Development and Partnerships at Open Eye Gallery), Cheryl Newman (Artist, curator and former Director of Photography of the Telegraph magazine) and Lisa Tse (Brand Consultant, TV Producer and founder of women's club The Sorority). 209 Women is delivered in partnership with Open Eye Gallery, Liverpool City Council, The Royal Photographic Society and The Sorority.Headline Sponsor: Aston Martin and Power of WomenSupported by: Montessori St NicholasFunded by: Arts Council England
