About this event:

Created by Gmums HQ

National Maritime Museum

Uncover Women Making Waves at National Maritime Museum which tackles the epic tales of women who explored the globe.

This event is suitable for: All ages

This event costs: Free

Celebrate the lives and achievements of women whose adventures and stories have been lost to history: women like Ching Shih (who may have been one of the most powerful pirates in history), Phillis Wheatley (the first published African-American female poet) and Jeanne Baret (the first woman to have completed a circumnavigation of the world), amongst many others.

Become a curator for the day and put together your own mini-exhibition of the pioneering women who made waves.

And join us at noon in the Queen’s House for a dance performance inspired by our female portraits, choreographed and performed by girls from Sydenham High School.
