We love the arts: WOMEN. CARS. COURAGE.
An Exhibition Celebrating Female Pioneers of Automotive History
When people think of the automotive industry, the image is often male-dominated: men on stage, men in the audience, men making the decisions. But history tells a far richer, more diverse story—one that has too often been overlooked.
From the very beginning of the automobile, women have been there, driving innovation, breaking barriers, and leaving a legacy of courage and creativity. They were inventors, engineers, designers, and racers. They redefined what was possible. And yet, their contributions have rarely taken center stage.
This September, that changes.
A Tribute to Visionary Women
Women. Cars. Courage. is an exhibition dedicated to the women who shaped automotive history in ways both practical and revolutionary. Here, visitors will discover the fascinating stories behind inventions we take for granted today:
- Who invented the windshield wiper?
- Who completed the first circumnavigation of the globe by car?
- Who designed the rearview mirror, the car heater, or even the road’s centerline?
Behind these milestones stand women whose determination and ideas pushed the industry forward – and it is time their achievements were recognized.
