Description
YW Calgary wanted to celebrate the contributions of 150 Calgary women from the past 150 years in celebration of Canada’s birthday. The solution captures the voices and stories of the women on 65 cardboard boxes. Archival photography, short and long stories, highlighted achievements, quotes and statistics educate and inform on the diverse contributions of the 150 women. The exhibit can be assembled in a different way each time it’s installed, mirroring the creative ways the women helped to build the community and highlighting their individuality. The audience is invited to rework the boxes.
