Explore the connections between migration and textiles, and the ways in which textiles can represent people, movement and culture. Part of PHM’s More in Common project
Inspired by the legacy of murdered MP Jo Cox (16 June 2016), PHM’s More in Common project involves a group of over 30 people from different backgrounds who made Manchester their home, coming together to share knowledge, experiences, and conversations.
The More in Common project and exhibition are part of CultureLabs, receiving funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Framework Programme for Research and Innovation.
Part of PHM’s programme exploring migration, co-created by a Community Programme Team made up of people whose lives have been shaped by migration.
