August 15th sees an opportunity to view The Art of Suff-Rage traveling art installation for a one off special event in celebration of Vida Goldstein. Vida was one of Victoria’s most colorful and courageous suffragists whom passed away forty nine years ago on the 15th August 1949. We have chosen this significant date during the Centenary of Women’s Suffrage in Victoria to honor her achievements. Fellow artist Fern Smith and I will be on the steps of the St Kilda Town Hall with our installation and special guest speakers between 11AM and 1PM on that date. We will be dressed as suffragist with a special edition of The Art of Suff-Rage newspaper in celebration of her outstanding contribution to gaining universal suffrage for women. My one hundred ceramic suffragist sculptures will be on the steps and Ferns ten commemorative banners will be on display.
