#Museum30 Day 2 #blackandwhite It’s so brutal when it’s printed in B&W. This is from our Museum Annual Report, 1962/3. Doreen Harry, it’s your fault, not that regressive Victorian Government law that required women in public service to resign on marriage 🤔😡

Did you catch last nights ep of Australian Story? A powerful piece on farming with the environment & healthy landscapes full of wildlife. Take home- time is precious & we need to work hard to protect & restore this land @TheMulloonInst @AustralianStory https://t.co/mGzwr9TtrO

From boll to cloth: #cotton display or #illustrative_series at #Museum of @Economicbotany, #Adelaide Botanic Gardens. Early Europeans couldn't grow cotton here so imported from UK instead. Household linens are still referred to here as "Manchester" @BotGardensSA @KewMobileMuseum

This is Mrs Delany. In the late 18th century she made almost 1000 pictures of flowers like this one, from cut paper, until her eyesight failed at 82.

She also made a grotto out of shells for her buddy the Duchess of Portland

And she had a pet bullfinch called Tony.

"More than 8 billion tonnes of plastics have been produced since the 1950s, and most of that has been thrown away." I'll be looking for fugitive #nurdles on our local shoreline this weekend. And finding alternatives for single-use #plastics.

"Women are the life force that sustains farms & communities, especially during major challenges like drought", reflects curator @lizadh13. To browse interviews on women's responses to drought, head to Museums Victoria's Collections online: https://t.co/kdlNFYt39b

[Murphy Peoples @murphy_peoples]

I just heard the story from @lizadh13 of why we have a cow pat in our collection. If the Minister for Agriculture told me I could be a farmer or a feminist but not both I would think he's full of 💩 too! https://t.co/g4lOpusAvY @invisfarmer #thisismymv #museumlife
