Women of Steel: Showroom Cinema, Showroom 5, Sheffield. Friday 4th Feb,
2-3pm. Free admission.
'Women of Steel' is an initiative from Sheffield City Council which
marks the contribution women played in the Sheffield steel industry
during World War II.
In December 2010, six undergraduate students from the School of English
at the University of Sheffield met with some of the women of steel to
talk about their lives and experiences, and at this free public event
they will present films and digital artefacts of that meeting. There
will also be a chance to hear the women speak in person.
This event promises to be an innovative, moving, and charming journey
through Sheffield's past, present, and future. Mike Braddick, PVC for
Arts and Humanities, and Amy Carter, Head of Arts at Sheffield City
Council, will be opening the event. You are warmly invited to attend.
No need to book.
