Harry Wallop writing in the Times about our Taking Care of Business: Migrant Entrepreneurs and the Making of Britain: 

The Migration Museum in London is opening an exhibition dedicated to migrant entrepreneurs in the UK, spanning from brands like Deliveroo to local business owners.

“In celebration of migrant-owned businesses, the Migration Museum in Lewisham is launching a new concept store dedicated entirely to selling products from migrant makers.”

Time Out selected our Taking Care of Business: Migrant Entrepreneurs and the Making of Britain as one of the best events, exhibitions and things to do in London in April.

An Indian entrepreneur has gifted the institution £25,000.

“The debate on migration has become polarised with heated talk about immigration in recent years while Britain’s emigration continues to be overlooked. But there’s a hidden treasure located in Lewisham’s shopping centre that’s shining a light on those stories – the Migration Museum.”

FAD Magazine selected our Departures exhibition as one of the top 5 exhibitions to see in London in 2022

“With its uniqueness, without any masterpiece on display, without shimmering advertisement, the Migration Museum proves that every migrant’s voice is worth hearing.”

A BBC Radio 4 documentary exploring the story of one of the so-called ‘Dunera boys’ featured stories from our Departures exhibition, including interviews filmed on location and a contribution from our Artistic Director, Aditi Anand.

“The news stories on migration often look at people coming to the UK but what about those who’ve left? A new display at this wonderful museum looks at people who’ve moved elsewhere over the last 400 years — from the Mayflower Pilgrims fleeing persecution, to the shameful deportation of Windrushers. There are lesser known stories too, such as Welsh emigrants who went to South America to form their own “little Wales beyond Wales”. The exhibition is creatively designed with departure boards and trollies carrying suitcases to give the place the feel of an airport.”
