Embark on a journey through history and inspiration at SHE_SEES, a stunning, free exhibition in Boathouse 4 at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard which celebrates maritime women: then, now, onward.
Brought to life by Lloyd’s Register Foundation, SHE_SEES highlights 23 professional women working in UK maritime today. Striking portraits capture each woman in her unique element, offering a personal glimpse into their stories and careers. Younger visitors can engage with the SHE_SEES Challenge booklet or the Boathouse 4 activity sheet.
SHE_SEES is open daily from 10am to 4:30pm in Boathouse 4.
The exhibition, hosted in partnership with Portsmouth Historic Quarter and the University of Portsmouth, taps into archive materials from across the UK and Ireland to uncover the extensive history of trailblazing female voices in the maritime industry and aims to change the tide on diversity.
Entry for the exhibition is free; visitors should ask for a ‘historic quarter pass’ at the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard’s Visitor Centre, which gives them free access to the site excluding ticketed attractions. The SHE_SEES exhibition is open in Boathouse 4 for visitors between 10am and 4:30pm.
