Helen Antrobus (Assistant National Curator for cultural heritage at the National Trust) talks about Manchester's relationship to green space âIt is a well-known paradox that love of nature is the strongest in places from which nature has been most resolutely thrown out.â â Manchester Guardian, 1906. These words, written over a century ago, remain relevant today. As Manchester continues to evolve, the need to preserve and provide green spaces for its residents becomes ever more crucial. Join us for an enlightening talk by Curator Helen Antrobus, as she delves into Manchesterâs early 20th-century efforts to access and appreciate natureâs beauty. About the Talk: Helen will explore the cultural and physical routes that Manchesterâs working people took to enjoy green spaces, from parks and allotments to flower shows, cycling, socialism, and trespass. Discover the historical context and the ongoing importance of green spaces in urban environments. About Helen Antrobus: Helen Antrobus is the Assistant National Curator for cultural heritage at the National Trust. Her research focuses on social activism, access to rural landscapes, and the lives of female conservationists between 1900 and 1945. She co-curated Beatrix Potter: Drawn to Nature at the Victoria and Albert Museum in 2022 and Represent: Voices 100 Years On at the Peopleâs History Museum in 2018. Her first book, First in the Fight: Women Who Made Manchester, was published in 2019. Donât miss this opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of Manchesterâs green spaces and their significance. We look forward to seeing you there!
