Protest, Rebellion and Freedom of Speech. Two centuries on, these principles are still under threat. This new commission tells the personal stories of two women as they struggle to rise up and find their voice.

Just starting the second @peterloo2019 session at @PHMMcr which is looking back at the bicentenary year. Earlier we heard from Karen Shannon of @mcrhistfest and Lynette Cawthra of @wcmlibrary, who was talking about their project with Tom Paine's Bones. https://t.co/XS5F608H1p
In partnership with the Guardian we produced a special commission; a visual celebration of the rallying cries from a history of unrest and how #Peterloo led to the founding of the Manchester Guardian.

No booking required. Hope to see you there!
Inspired by the partnerships & engagement from communities, cultural practitioners & academics to mark @peterloo2019, myself & @AnneMcLaughlin invite you to explore what’s already in place and what appetite there is to collaborate across Scotland in 2020 to mark #1820radical war.
Inspiring to see so many examples of museums getting involved with the #GlobalClimateStrike activism today. @McrMuseum shrouding their T-Rex in black seems to be one of the most dramatic actions - and also one of the most controversial, judging by the comments!
