Kirsty,
While almost all historical exhibits pay at least some attention to the
contributions to women, the Institute of Texas Cultures in San Antonio
has produced several that focus on people of that persuasion over the
last two decades.  The major ones are:

Texas Women--A Celebration of History, produced for the Texas Foundation
of Woman's Resources in the early '80s.  The exhibit traveled to five, or
so, major venues and a catalog was published.  The original exhibit
graphics and furniture are at Texas Womens University in Denton, but the
Institue continues to circulate a facsimile copy.

Up the Trail and Into the Movies: Changing Images of Ranch Women
1850-1950, a temporary exhibit about female ranch persons (duh) and a
companion traveling exhibit entitled Ranch Woman: Roles, Images,
Possibilities (both done in the mid-'80s).

Texas Rural Women, a traveling exhibit produced for Texas A&M Library
(basically a photo exhibit from the files of County Extension Agents
(Home Economics) during the '30s and '40s) about 1990.

Rural Texas Women at Work, 1930-1960--same as above.

If you need more information about any of the above, just drop us a
line.  Michaele and David Haynes
