Join Bernadette Hopkins as we prepare to celebrate International Women's Day on 8th March 2022 and experience an open discussion around the impact of borders on women and the role of art and activism.

Her performance, ‘Our Bodies Their Borders’ explores the border between Derry in Northern Ireland, and Donegal in the Republic of Ireland. It's part memory, part an acknowledgement of every day life along the border - where the body acts as border and interrogates the daily act of crossing and 'breaking’ the border.

Join this online event on 8th March at 6.30pm and Register Here to learn how "colonial borders essentially aim to divide and control, and therefore change the human geography of a place ..." Bernadette Hopkins.
