Kitchen to the Vote
From the kitchen to the right to vote. A display of a pioneer's kitchen with memorabilia of the time. The struggle of women's lives, and the underappreciated acknowledgement of what they endured. Polish women of the area would eventually gain more freedom and be included in the financial running and rights of their lives due to the suffragettes in Adelaide.
