An article in the Evening Standard about the Migration Museum’s move to its new venue in the heart of Lewisham Shopping Centre, featuring an interview with our director, Sophie Henderson.
‘The Migration Museum, which looks at the movement of people to and from the UK, will open at a former H&M store in Lewisham Shopping Centre on Friday, February 14.’
‘In 1620, colonists known as ‘the pilgrims’ left Plymouth on the ship and made their way to America. As this year marks the 400th anniversary of this important historical event, an exciting new project has been commissioned by the Migration Museum in London.’
‘The Migration Museum is moving to Lewisham Shopping Centre following a two-and-a-half-year residency in Lambeth. Through events, exhibitions and education workshops the museum tells the stories of migration to Britain over hundreds of years.’
