Have you heard about the latest Exhibition now on at Parliament House NSW?

The exhibition is touted to follow 100 years in the history of women in State Politics with an array of memorabilia, protest material, artefacts, artwork and photography.

“Women have a contribution to make to the life of the nation which only they can make.” So said Millicent Preston Stanley who, in 1925, became the first woman parliamentarian in New South Wales.
