Black History Tour of the British Museum

April 14, 2019

The next Black History tour of the British Museum by Black History Studies will be held on Sunday 14th April 2019. During this tour, we will take you around the Museum, sharing our detailed knowledge about the artefacts on display.

We organise the Black History Tour of the British Museum to inspire, engage and educate the community on the artefacts held in the British Museum on African History with the aim to inspire interest in this area of study for future generations.

The British Museum has extensive collections from historic societies of Africa. Some of the highlights of the tour are the Bronzes of Benin and artefacts in the Egyptian Gallery.

There is a choice of two tour times. The Morning Tour is from 10.30am – 1.00pm and the Afternoon Tour is from 2.00pm to 4.30pm.
