NEWS! Emancipation Celebration at The Bristol Beacon

Join us at the Bristol Beacon, this Saturday 13th August to mark Emancipation Day (1st August). Celebrations will begin at 12 midday and go on until 8pm. There will be lots of great activities including poetry and music, food, fashion and stories! The event is being run as part of the ‘Bridging Histories’ project and members of the Decolonising Memory team will be there to run a special workshop at 6pm where you can learn our memorial dance. We will also be performing the dance here to mark this event.
