Celebrate New Zealand women winning the right to vote
On the 19th September 125 years ago a new Electoral Act was signed into law and New Zealand became the first self-governing country in the world to grant all adult women the right to vote in parliamentary elections.
This event, exactly 125 years later, celebrates women authors; their talent, determination and tenacity to tell ‘our’ stories in order that women of their generation and beyond recognize themselves and feel collective strength through these vital and familiar narratives.

Readings from ‘Bloomsbury Women and the Wild Colonial Girl'
Playwright Lorae Parry has selected some of the most colourful passages of her play ‘Bloomsbury Women and the Wild Colonial Girl’ about the relationship between Katherine Mansfield and Virginia Woolf. Readings by Lorae Parry and actor Carmel McGlone.

Stay for book signing and Q&A with Lorae and Carmel.

Parry’s Katherine Mansfield, the ‘colonial’ girl at large in a hard and dazzling world takes us close to ‘the real thing’ … does justice to the amusing, clever, compassionate, constantly self-examining personality it engages with. And it shows us Virginia Woolf as well in a freshly slanting light. – Vincent O’Sullivan.

Feminist Engagements in Aotearoa: 125 years of Suffrage and Beyond conference

Opening the 2018 conference 'Feminist Engagements in Aotearoa: 125 years of Suffrage and Beyond' Professor Barbara Brookes delivers this keynote lecture exploring the implications of the transition from ‘family’ to individual income over the course of the twentieth century until today. The conference is hosted by Women’s Studies Association/Pae Akoranga Wahine and the Stout Research Centre for NZ Studies

The power of the purse: Women and money — keynote lecture

Money, it appears, has no sex yet historically it has been allocated by gender, as we know it still is today.
For much of the twentieth century, married women relied on their husbands’ pay packet or more likely a ‘house-keeping allowance’ from that pay packet, supplemented from 1946 by the universal Family Benefit.
Considered as dependents, women had no access to loans or mortgage finance. That notion of dependency was under attack by the 1960s and 1970s. Financial independence was one of the goals of second wave feminism.

About the speaker
Professor Barbara Brookes, Department of History, Otago University.
Barbara’s research interests include gender relations in New Zealand, and the history of health and disease in New Zealand and Britain.
