Feminist Histories of the Future is a symposium that brings together artists, writers, curators and scholars to investigate women’s creative legacies.

Uniting practitioners and theorists across the disciplines of art practice and history, it aims to retrieve the creative contributions made by women of the past, emphasising the critical importance of feminist, arts-based methods of research.

The event will generate discussion and ideas-exchange around the ways in which past and present voices can come into contact through creative forms of research, and why this is important now.

Creative methods of knowledge formation are explored, such as fabulation and fiction; autobiography and memoir; re-enactment and performance; correspondence, anecdote and oral history as well as material and visual practices.
