A multi-media exhibition celebrating 60 years of Europe's largest street festival. Celebrating 60 years of Notting Hill Carnival - An exhibition reflecting on the history and cultural impact of Europe's largest street festival. Notting Hill Carnival is not just a festival. It is history, resistance, art, politics and joy compressed into two days. For decades, it has reminded us that Britain is no longer a monoculture and that equality is not achieved in courtrooms or parliament alone, but in the streets where people dance, eat, and live together. The Legacy of Notting Hill Carnival is a multi-media exhibition showcasing a collection of interpretations, video/film, photography, sound, archival materials, sculpture, costume and more. Featuring works including: original NHC sculptures from the world-renowned artist Carl Gabriel, photography from the legendary Horace Ové, Melissa Gardner and Ollie Tikare, a Grenfell Tower sound archive by Suzanna Vaz, videos from BBC and BFI’s archives, and archival letters between carnival organisers and the police/local authorities.
