Join us for a special Late marking the opening of Un-Collectable / منّا وفينا, an exhibition bringing South-West Asian and North African community responses and artist commissions into conversation with belongings in the Horniman’s collection.
Expect live music, delicious food, workshops and festive vibes, curated by Hekayyatna.
This activity forms part of (Re)Claimed: Liberating South-West Asia and North Africa (SWANA) in UK Museums, a community project developed by Hekayyatna, the Horniman Museum and Gardens, and UCL. The project is supported through the ESRC Impact Acceleration Account at UCL Innovation & Enterprise, Grant Reference ES/X004627/1. It explores how SWANA histories and cultures are represented in UK museums and what becomes possible when communities reclaim the authority to interpret their own heritage.
