BLACK CREATIVES MK

Exciting Opportunity for BLACK CREATIVES MK at the Milton Keynes Museum

In an exciting development, our group, BLACK CREATIVES MK, has been granted the prestigious opportunity to participate in a unique exhibition at the Milton Keynes Museum. This event, set to take place from October 4th to 6th, 2024, will be a celebration of African arts and creativity, and the best part—it’s completely free!

During these three days, we’ll have the chance to display our creative works in the museum’s new high-tech building, designed specifically to host modern exhibitions. This space provides us with a platform to showcase our heritage and contributions, especially significant as we celebrate BLACK HISTORY MONTH.

In addition to the exhibition, the Milton Keynes Museum is offering us complimentary tickets to explore the entire museum on any day of our choosing—a generous offer considering the usual admission fee of £17.50 per adult. The museum itself is a treasure trove of local history, from its ancient roots to its contemporary status as a planned city. Its interactive exhibits and Victorian street of shops promise an engaging experience that appeals to all ages.

This opportunity is made possible by the museum’s ongoing project, “A Museum for a New City,” funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. Over the past year, the museum staff have collaborated with local community groups and residents to curate exhibits that reflect the innovative spirit of Milton Keynes.

As we prepare for this event, we will be reaching out to those who have expressed interest to discuss further plans and access details. However, if you are a Black creative in or around Milton Keynes and haven’t yet joined us, it’s not too late. We welcome more participants to bring diversity and depth to our exhibition.

Stay tuned for more information as we get closer to the event. This is not just an exhibition; it’s a chance to be part of something momentous—a celebration of culture, creativity, and community in the heart of our city. Join us to make this an unforgettable experience!

As October approaches, so does the anticipation for the Every Emotion Is Valid Convention. If you haven’t secured your tickets yet, now is the time to ensure you don’t miss out on this enriching event. Tickets are available here: bit.ly/EEIVCON-24.

For those already planning to attend, prepare to be inspired. For others still deciding, consider this a cordial invitation to join a gathering of creative minds and passionate hearts. Let’s make history together at the Milton Keynes Museum this October.
