Heritage Open Day

16 September, 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Learn about Leicester's Black history through the collections in the Living Archive. The Living Archive is a dedicated archive for the preservation and celebration of Black history locally and nationally. Collections from the archive will be on display for visitors to explore and the heritage team will share the fascinating histories that have shaped Leicester and the continuing work for the Living Archive.
Visitors are welcome to bring items they may wish to donate to the Living Archive, whether as a physical or digital donation and contribute to the recording of Black arts, heritage and culture.
