Family festival of Caribbean culture
Join us this summer as we celebrate London’s diverse Caribbean culture in a free festival for the whole family. Get moving with dance workshops and party with live DJs.
Come and create colourful crafts with our Indo-Caribbean community artists and get stuck into a range of food-themed workshops.
A variety of our Caribbean partners will be taking over the museum in celebration of this diverse, vibrant culture.
More information will be released soon.
