Supnaa: Dreams of our Fathers exhibition at Arboretum Orangery at FORMAT24 March 19th -April 21st 2024. Welcoming South Asian community.

The location for this exhibition cannot be more important as BCVA’s vision is always to bring the arts to the doorstep of the South Asian communities. Normanton in Derby is one such place for the densely populated Pakistani communities in Derby. Local days group visits are essential into entertaining and promoting an understanding of local communities. As the exhibition draws to a close a local group of ladies were invited not only to view but to share their stories of migration and journey to Derby. They bought some excellent images and have great stories to share which all input into the archive we are building for South Asians in Derby. Take time to read some of the responses we have had to the exhibition here:-  SUPNAA 2024 Visitor feedback
