‘Small Stories, Great Women’

Back

Storytelling. A free programme of events for discovering the stories of women linked to the fields of science, art and history in seven of Barcelona's museums.

To commemorate International Women's Day, the programme of events Small Stories, Great Women is taking place. Through a dramatised story, we will discover a female figure linked to the history, collections or heritage of each of the seven participating museums.
