Rosemary Crowley and Social Justice exhibition

Magill Library, 8 - 26 April 2011

The Bob Hawke Prime Ministerial Library presented an exhibition of archival materials from the Rosemary Crowley collection. Rosemary Crowley was Senator for South Australia 1983-2002. She was Minister for Family Services from 1993 to 1996 and Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for the Status of Women in 1993.

Rosemary is a strong advocate for the status of women, and supported the Hawke government’s Women’s Budget Statements. Rosemary’s love of sport and encouragement of the participation of women in sport is also shown in the exhibition.

The exhibition included photographs, maps, badges and framed artworks from the Rosemary Crowley collection and was originally presented in 2010 in the City West Library.

The Rosemary Crowley collection is held at the Bob Hawke Prime Ministerial Library, UniSA City West campus.
