Lon-art Creative powered by Tower Hamlets will offer two events, on different days, to reflect on what it is to be a Black British woman. We aim to highlight the herstories of black women in Britain, their experiences, struggles and achievements through the arts.

Join Birungi, Louise Akrofi, Careen Latoya and Carolyn Baguma on this panel we will explore the impact, evolution and journey of women of African and Caribbean heritage in the UK.

This event will include live music & poetry and a panel discussion exploring our lived experiences. Our speakers will be black British artists and activists who will share how they explore identity within their work.

Additionally, we will hear about a research exploring the identity of African Diaspora Women presented by researcher and Lon-art’s Trustee Carolyn Baguma.
