Devon Development Education and Exeter Library are hosting a special Library Lates to celebrate Windrush Day on Saturday 22 June.
The family-friendly evening event includes talks, exhibitions and workshops celebrating Caribbean culture.
There will be music from DJ Somatic plus a bar with soft and alcoholic drinks.
Devon Development Education is an Exeter-based charity which provides training and resources to schools and communities across Devon.
It aims to help children and people of all ages to understand global issues and their personal involvement in them, and work for a more just and sustainable world.
Windrush Day is held on 22 June each year to honour the contribution of Afro-Carribean migrants who began arriving on HMT Empire Windrush in 1948, known as the “Windrush generation”, to UK society.
The first Windrush Day was held in 2018 following a campaign by activist Patrick Vernon.
The Library Lates Windrush celebration takes place from 6-9.30pm on Saturday 22 June 2024 at Exeter Library. The event is free to attend.
