Black History Month – Roaming Pop-Up Exhibition

October 5, 2023

Black Country Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust have commissioned local art curator Juliet Whitter to set up an exhibition to mark Black History Month.  The exhibition aims to take people down memory lane and showcase what life was like for local Black people in recent history.  Come along and be transported back in time and learn about personal stories and journeys made by Black people, particularly in the era between the late 1940s and 1970s, when around 500,000 people left their homes in the Caribbean to help rebuild Britain after it had been ravaged by World War Two.

The exhibition will be touring the following sites:

  • 16 October – Penn Hospital
  • 17 October – Hallam Street Hospital
  • 30 October – Bushey Fields Hospital
  • 31 October – Trafalgar House

Opening and closing times will vary depending on the site, but it will certainly be available for staff members, patients and visitors to access from 11am to 2pm.
