An exhibition exploring the hidden histories of women at sea.
From Mary Lang, who joined the crew on the last of the merchant sailing ships to journey from South Australia to Cornwall in the 1930s, to Dame Ellen MacArthur who blazed a trail for women in competitive sailing assuring herself a place in sporting history as the fastest woman ever to circumnavigate the globe, this exhibition tells the compelling stories of those who’ve challenged the establishment and made their mark in a male dominated world. The exhibition, which is supported by the Hypatia Trust, brings these stories to life through objects, film and photography.
