FROM THE VAULT

A WOMAN'S PLACE

As part of the Western Plains Cultural Centre’s ‘From the Vault Exhibition’ series, Local Studies Officer Simone Taylor and Education Officer Rebecca Walker discuss some of the themes and ideas behind the current exhibition ‘A Woman’s Place’. The title is a play on the phrase ‘A woman’s place…is in the home’ and refers to the concept of separate spheres that dominated understandings of gender roles in the late 19th century. Rebecca and Simone will discuss the complex roles women played in this time period referencing the interesting stories of three local Dubbo women.
