Exhibition: The Things We Keep

FREE EXHIBITION

Tuesday to Saturday (closed Sunday and Monday)

This exhibition gives residents from Enfield’s diverse communities the opportunity to share the stories behind personal objects that hold deep meaning in their lives.

The objects displayed are cherished reminders of family, friends, and loved ones. For some, they represent connections to cultural heritage, for others, they mark significant milestones, achievements, and personal transitions, each telling a unique story. From old photographs to handmade crafts, these items tell stories that connect culture, identity, and personal reflection, fostering a deeper sense of connection among individuals and communities.

The exhibition offers a glimpse into individual lives through their loaned or donated artefacts, showing how cherished items can tell powerful stories. It also revisits objects in our existing collection, celebrating and enriching local narratives.
