The First Garden City Heritage Museum’s latest exhibition ‘Women in Letchworth Garden City’ opened last Saturday (2 April), which follows the lives of some of the town’s extraordinary women.
From factory workers to flappers, secretaries to suffragettes, the exhibition explores the town’s everyday domestic lives of wives, mothers and daughters from the early 1900s to present day. Look around old photographs, dresses and paintings by some of Letchworth’s finest female artists, to get a taste of their remarkable contribution to the town.
