Abstract
The Bad Bridget exhibition tells the stories of thousands of women who left Ireland for North America between 1838 and 1918. Some of these women found themselves in trouble with the authorities as they struggled to survive.
Using an eclectic mix of objects, sights, sounds and smells, the exhibition charts these women’s experiences of migration; starting with their lives in Ireland and the hardships that led many to migrate.
