EXHIBITION OPENING PARTY The Feminist Library on Loan at The Showroom opens this Thursday, 4:30pm!Join us! ‘The Feminist Library on Loan’ bring materials from the Library’s collection to the Showroom along with a programme of free workshops and events.The Feminist Library was founded in London in 1975 during the Women’s Liberation Movement, and remains active in its current home in Waterloo as an archive and community space led by a collective of volunteers.Artist Minna Haukka has created an installation inspired by the Library, particularly its vulnerable situation. After surviving threatened eviction in 2016 the Library is still seeking a secure permanent home – Haukka’s installation evokes the precarity of a historical archive in transition.Also taking place within the space will be Expressions, a group exhibition by young self-identified women of colour.EXHIBITION DATES AND OPENING HOURS20 July – 11 August 2018Open 12 – 6pm Wed – Sat Part of Feminist Library on Loan at The Showroom: https://www.facebook.com/events/921912744647792/The Feminist Library on Loan at The Showroom and Expressions are part of Create Church Street, which seeks to engage the local area with the arts.
