Upcoming exhibition
Menopause: What’s Changed?
Lucy’s Gallery, opening February 2025
Half of us will go through menopause at some point in our lives. Yet this common life event is shrouded in mystery and stigma.
Menopause: What’s Changed? takes you on a tour from menopause in the past through to the burning issues which face us in the present day. We will explore menopause in the past; how menopause became medicalised; and personal experiences of menopause including LGBT+ experiences and early menopause, weaving together a tapestry of rich lived experience.
We approached more than 15 arts and heritage funders, and none of them chose to fund this exhibition. We find ourselves in a situation where nobody wants to fund menopause - so we’re asking you. Please donate what you can to make this exhibition happen.
