What's new at The Migration Museum
All Our Stories: Migration and the Making of Britain
The Migration Museum has officially welcomed two new and exciting exhibitions, as well as the return of their popular Migrant Makers Market. All Our Stories: Migration and the Making of Britain is a new exhibition opening on 12 September at the Migration Museum, shining a light on how central migration has always been to our lives in Britain through immersive installations, art, film, photography, personal stories and keepsakes. This free exhibition brings together highlights from the Migration Museum's work over the past decade, alongside new stories and artwork that explore the many ways in which migration has shaped who we are – as individuals, as communities, and as a nation. Come with us on a journey as we explore the reasons why people migrate, experiences of arriving and settling and questions of identity and belonging. Open Thursday–Saturday, 11am–5.30pm. Free entry – no booking. Find out more here.
Inside/Outside and All In Between
The Inside/Outside and All In Between exhibition is a community curated exhibition at the Migration Museum exploring the complexities of migrant identity, featuring local artists with a connection to Lewisham. It features responses by artists working across diverse mediums, including film, photography, poetry, painting, collage and more. Open Thursday–Saturday, 11am–5.30pm. Free entry – no booking.
