BLACK PRESENCE EXPLORED WORKSHOPS
6 October 5:30pm – 7:30pm
This is a fantastic opportunity for the public to interact with works within the museum stores and exhibitions that connect with Black Britain.
We are asking the public to reinterpret what they see with the guidance of our resident poet The Orator. Some responses will be displayed as temporary labels for artworks in the museum which portray Black people.
This is a 4 week project with limited places – pre-booking essential.
