About
The exhibition displays objects from our collection that have not previously been displayed and includes photographs, newsletters, scrapbooks, songbooks, posters and banners.
On display will also be the film ‘Carry Home Greenham’ (1983). Beeban Kidron and Amanda Richardson spent seven months filming at Greenham Common Women’s Peace Camp between December 1982 to June 1983. The film shows snapshots of daily life at the camp and the myriad of challenges the women faced. This 67 minute-long film will be played in their main exhibition area on a loop during opening hours.

At the heart of our exhibition is a participatory story web created by artist Alison McIntyre. This is a growing installation using the original fence from Greenham Common, repurposed to enable a visitors to adorn it with protest once again.
