This year marks the 30 anniversary of Black History Month, and Leicester is celebrating with a unique exhibition curated by Serendipity. The exhibition, which acknowledges the contribution of the African and African Caribbean community to Leicester and the UK, features the stories of local pioneers first hand through a short film, and reflects upon three decades of Black History Month through memories, memorabilia and archival research. Until 31 Oct 2017.
