The secrets of Scottish women in the Arts and Crafts movement

Friday 8 March 2019

The arts and crafts movement was more accepting of women artists, but their work was still made to stand in the shadows of men. Discover more about Scottish women in the Arts and Crafts movement, and uncover the secrets of some of their work in buildings that you might not have known.

Thank you

The Engine Shed has been supported by a grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund. Thanks to National Lottery players, we have been able to create Scotland’s dedicated building conservation centre. It enables us to encourage understanding of traditional building materials and skills among the public and professionals and raise standards in conservation for traditional buildings.
