Strong Women’s Shadow Boxes Project DVD

These Shadow Boxes tell the stories of Strong Women past and present. They honour the struggles women in Cherbourg have faced. They also identify what gives them strength. More than 20 women, young and old, gathered over 3 days at the Ration Shed Museum in September 2011 to share memories, to laugh and cry and to create these tributes. Women Elders and young women strengthened their connections and stories from the past were brought into the present.
