The exhibition which has received extensive national media coverage, celebrates trailblazing Irish women over the past hundred years in the workplace, trade, professions and professional sporting arena. It includes stunning photographs and illustrations taken from two books, "A Woman's Work" by Beta Bajgartova and "Rocking the System, Fearless and Amazing Irish Women who made History" by Siobhan Parkinson in addition to films, audio recordings and a Post-it poll for visitors to continue the conversation about equality and what it means in Ireland today.

Margot Slattery, country president, Sodexo Ireland, said “We’re delighted to be a sponsor of the wonderful exhibition, which celebrates Irish female pioneers who faced and overcame societal and cultural obstacles to follow their dreams of working and financial independence.  Their bravery and determination cleared the way for subsequent female generations to pursue career paths that would have been unheard of a century ago.”
