We are delighted to be bringing our City of Empire to City of Diversity touring exhibition to the Highbury Hall Open Day for one day only.
The city’s changing population is shown through images from the Library of Birmingham’s important collections, including captivating portraits of people photographed by the Dyche studios over several decades.
The exhibition includes personal stories of migration and settlement by those who came to Birmingham and put down roots in the city.
The Highbury Hall Open Day will consist of tours of the house and gardens, so you can learn about the history of this Birmingham landmark. We are also delighted to be bringing Bhangra dance workshops and Mehndi artists, to complete this day of history, multiculturalism and fun.
