We particularly encourage elders and young people to attend, however, all are welcome!

 

We invite you to join us for a meal and to bring with you, your own personal archival materials, which could include photographs, photo albums, books, memorabilia, records, household objects, and heirlooms. Materials might spark conversations about the importance of collecting, preserving, and celebrating the histories of the Windrush Generation and their descendants.
