TRAILBLAZING: WOMEN IN CANADA SINCE 1867
SPECIAL EXHIBITION TO OPEN ON FEBRUARY 7
 

Trailblazing: Women in Canada since 1867 will be on view at Joseph Brant Museum from February 7 to May 27, 2023. This nationally travelling exhibit explores how women have transformed Canadian politics, work, and everyday life. The exhibit also examines work that still needs to be done in the 21st century with respect to women’s rights, different experiences based on race, class and ethnicity, and the experiences of the “everyday” woman.

The exhibit was created by the Waterloo Region Museum in collaboration with women’s history professors from the University of Waterloo. Input from various groups from across Canada also influenced the design and content of the exhibit. This project is funded by the Region of Waterloo, in part by the Government of Canada through the Museums Assistance Program of the Department of Canadian Heritage.

Joseph Brant Museum is open Tuesdays - Saturdays, 10:00am to 4:00pm, Trailblazing: Women in Canada since 1867 is included with the price of regular admission. For more information, please visit: museumsofburlington.ca
