The Women Who Said Yes! was an exhibition that showed at People’s History Museum, Manchester as part of the 100-year anniversary of the Representation of the People Act, which first gave some women the right to vote
The exhibition tells the stories of the first women who stood for parliament in the 1918 elections, many of whose stories have been largely forgotten. Researched and written by a group of dedicated local researchers and historians, the women’s stories are gaining a wider audience including national press.
The design was created using simple period design features, with politically associated colours to be more recognisable to a modern audience.
