Suffragettes and Pirates

Elise Goodge from Mainstreet looked stunning, seen here with Stewart the manky parrot and displaying pistols from the Museum collection
Dr Eric Dorfman from the Whanganui Regional Museum seen here with cannon balls. To the side is a treasure chest from the Museum collection.
A real cannon from the museum collection.
A model of a Spanish galleon from the collection. It was so intricate.

Carla introducing Judith Timpany from the Whanganui Community Foundation. Judith's children's story about a little girl who grew up in Victorian times also added some of the history of women's philanthropy.
