Black History Month at Libraries and Archives
This event is part of a special programme of events and book displays, delivered by Libraries and Archives, to celebrate Black History Month throughout October 2022. The theme is ‘Time for Change: Action Not Words’. Join us as part of the nationwide celebration of Black History, Arts and Culture in the UK.
Urbanwise.London with support from Kensington and Chelsea’s Culture team would like to invite you to join our Portobello Road Black History Walk.
During this walk along Portobello and Golborne roads, we’ll tell the story of this area’s rich Black history, including the arrival of the Windrush, the origins of the carnival and the wonderful musical heritage.
