Join TCM at the National Maritime Museum for a special event celebrating new artist commissions in the Atlantic Worlds Gallery. Event Description: Atlantic World Gallery Reimagined: A Refurbishment CelebrationDate: 4th September 2024
Time: 5:30 PM - 8:00 PM
Venue: National Maritime Museum, Romney Rd, London SE10 9NF The Collective Makers (TCM) and the National Maritime Museum (NMM) warmly invite you to Atlantic World Gallery Reimagined: A Refurbishment Celebration, a significant event marking the transformation of the Atlantic Worlds Gallery. This special celebration, taking place on the 4th of September 2024 from 5:30 PM to 8:00 PM, showcases the newly commissioned works by a group of groundbreaking artists, bringing a renewed focus and fresh perspectives to the gallery’s representation of Black history. In response to the gallery's refurbishment, the AWG Board has commissioned a diverse group of artists—Karen McLean, Joseph Ijoyemi, Nadina Ali, and PoOr Collective—to reinterpret and revitalise the gallery space. Through these artistic interventions, the gallery has been updated to offer a brighter and more insightful exploration of Black history, allowing visitors to engage with the stories and experiences of the African Diaspora in new and meaningful ways. This project was made possible with the Art Fund Support. The evening will feature music by DJ Intalekt, creating an engaging and vibrant atmosphere as you explore the gallery’s new installations. Additionally, the event will include a live performance by Othello De'Souza-Hartley titled ‘Water Doesn’t Stop Flowing’. This multifaceted performance is a powerful celebration of alternative identities within the UK’s African Diaspora. It embodies the resilience and adaptability of these identities, much like water, which navigates and overcomes obstacles while carrying the weight of memory and history, acknowledging the present, and influencing the future. This event not only celebrates the refurbishment of the Atlantic Worlds Gallery but also serves as an invitation to reflect on the complex histories and narratives that shape our world today. Through the intersection of art, history, and performance, this event aims to create a space for dialogue, understanding, and inspiration. We look forward to welcoming you to this momentous occasion and sharing in the celebration of the Atlantic Worlds Gallery’s new chapter.

After watching the Buckingham Palace changing ceremony, we arrived at Westminster Abbey. There were a lot of people in the queue, about an hour and a half before entering the church. There is a interpreter at the door, you can choose Chinese. Follow the team and the interpreter is also explained. My favorite is the Matisse-style painting window. The staff in the church is very high quality and the temperament is very good, which is awe-inspiring.

Buckingham Palace is a must-visit for history lovers, featuring stunning architecture and beautiful gardens. The official residence of the British monarch, it dates back to 1703 and serves as the venue for royal ceremonies and events. Visitors can enjoy a glimpse into royal life, with the Changing of the Guard being a popular attraction.

I thought it was a special ride on the Ferris wheel, but the London Eye made me hit the face! When the capsule reached the highest point, I suddenly understood why the British love to chat. The Thames, Big Ben and the debris building look like they are shining in the sun, and it is really different every day. After landing, I found that the photos were all taken as glass reflections. Forget it, leave some regrets to be true.

Windsor Castle

The Queen&#39;s favorite palace is very luxurious, but it is not allowed to take pictures. It can only be taken outside. When entering, a photo was taken and was stopped by the staff. Knowing the life of the royal family, Windsor Castle is generally very quiet.
