But we also learn how mothers of all classes and circumstances fought back, and lobbied to be valued, respected and supported, not as reproductive vessels, but as people.In this guided tour, we'll delve specifically into how the stigmatisation of single mothers in 17th and 18th century England shaped the need for institutions like the Foundling Hospital, seen through the lens of the Museum’s Collection.The tour includes entry to the Foundling Museum and its current exhibition which closes on 31 May.Tickets are available for the tour only, or for the tour an a copy of A Woman's Work. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/a-womans-work-museum-guided-tour/100001986194607538 - **Event Categories**: Art, Exhibitions, Nonprofit, Workshops, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 22.09, max: 32.81, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Foundling Museum - **lat**: 51.52525309999999 - **long**: -0.1216684 - **full address**: Foundling Museum, 40 Brunswick Square, London, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: A Woman's Work: Museum Guided Tour - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/39039a62929190108fd1c8429ba4051de0e571a940f29216c78d6797411842ea-rimg-w1200-h725-dc2d2b33-gmir.jpg?v=1775737401 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is A Woman's Work: Museum Guided Tour being held? - **A:** A Woman's Work: Museum Guided Tour takes place on Sat, 09 May, 2026 at 11:00 am to Sat, 09 May, 2026 at 12:00 pm at Foundling Museum, 40 Brunswick Square, London, United Kingdom. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for A Woman's Work: Museum Guided Tour? - **A:** Ticket prices for A Woman's Work: Museum Guided Tour range from GBP 22 to GBP 33 depending on the ticket type.
