EXhibition: Strike! Stories of bryant & MAY
summer 2023
Bryant & May was major part of a Victorian industry which dominated the British markets and houses with its famous matches for the better part of the last century. In more recent history, it made a huge impact on the people of Maryhill, many of whom had worked in the local factory.
On one side, this exhibition collects the real-life stories of former local employees. On the other, it reflects on the wider stories of the company and the famous match strike of 1888, aided by the artistic responses of Wyndford-based artist Rabia Saleem.
