Happy International Women’s Day!

March 2024

The suffragette-inspired celebration dates back to 1909, although marking it on this date came about in 1917. IWD is a national holiday in many countries, and has generally picked up more recognition since the UN began celebrating it in 1975. Among the fetes and ‘dos this year is a new exhibition at Christina Parker Gallery.

Note: due to weather, the opening has been postponed a week, until Friday March 15, 6pm.

I could feel the bunny-rabbit thump of blood coursing through my heart and it was correlating with the steady tick in the soundscape.
