Overview

A two-week exhibition at Melbourne Town Hall will shine the spotlight on nine unique women who helped shape Australia as we know it today. From the heroic exploits of WWII nurse Vivian Bullwinkel to the compassionate work of homeless and youth activist Rebecca Scott and the groundbreaking achievements of Deborah Lawrie (who became the country's first ever commercial pilot), the Her Place Pop-Up Exhibition will combine numerous multimedia platforms in order to celebrate the enormous accomplishments Australian women have made.

In addition to the nine profiles, the pop-up will provide a home base for a number of public talks, on topics ranging from women in sport to the impact of domestic violence. Visitors will also get their chance to share their ideas for a Her Place museum, an educational women's space the organisers hope to set up permanently in Melbourne.
