Roadshows

The Wales Women’s History Roadshow Project

The 17 Roadshows were based on the popular model of the Antiques Roadshow and the public were invited to bring items along  which tell us about the lives of women in Wales. As well as one-to-one discussions about the historical (as opposed to monetary) value of family or organisational records, Roadshows included talks and exhibitions, advice on conservation, and on safeguarding material for posterity.

Images from the Roadshow Project can be seen on The People's Collection website.
