The Migration Museum has raised more than £5,000 through crowdfunding towards its upcoming refugee crisis exhibition, which will open in June.

‘Museums have been urged “to do migration differently” by addressing contemporary issues and avoiding clichés.’

‘It is fair to say that Ireland’s relationship with Britain can come under the umbrella of “complicated” – and what better way to explore it than look at the migration of the Irish into Britain over the 20th century.’

‘An exhibition of artworks by Huguenot refugees sheds light on the history of cross-Channel migration, writes Boyd Tonkin’

‘Paris has one. New York has one. Could an immigration museum combat the widespread ignorance surrounding this centuries-old issue?’

‘The latest stage in a project that aims to challenge popular perceptions of immigration and emigration in Britain got under way in Edinburgh yesterday with the opening of an exhibition featuring Germans and their lives in Scotland.’

The Irish boosted Scotland’s shipyards with manpower, the Italians brought their restaurants and Asians set up the corner-shop culture. Yet it is the Germans who will be in the spotlight at a migration exhibition in Edinburgh.

‘At the University of Leicester, there’s been a remarkable exhibition of photographs charting the impact of immigration on Britain and the city itself.’

‘Images portraying different aspects of migration in England have been on display in Leicester as part of a project being researched at the University of Leicester. The 100 images from the Migration Museum Project inspired visitors and listeners to BBC Radio Leicester to share their own stories of how they came to Leicester to work, study, escape conflict, or to live with family and friends.’

A new exhibition seeks to give a window into a century of migration both into and out of Britain.

‘An exhibition to change Britons’ views of immigration is launched.’

Photographs charting 100 years of migration tell touching stories of identity, community, suffering and hope

‘Migration to and from Britain over the last 100 years is the subject of a touching exhibition at Hackney Museum in partnership with the Migration Museum Project. 100 donated images document the vast range of experience from those seeking work, refuge or education to those leaving for a new life overseas.’

Tales of hardship and achievement will be told through a new exhibition about migration in and out of Britain over the last 100 years.
