Welcome to the opening of our Weaving The Threads of Refugee Entrepreneurs exhibition! Join us at the Humble Gallery at Rosetta Arts (1 Hamilton Road, E15 3AE) on Thursday 20th June from 5.00 to 8.00 pm as we showcase refugees and asylum seekers’ fashion products inspired by their personal cultural heritage.

Come and enjoy free drinks, light refreshments and view diverse, beautiful, and meaningful fashion.

This is a spin-off from the AHRC-funded Decolonising Fashion and Textiles: Design for Cultural Sustainability with Refugee Communities project, delivered in partnership with Centre for Sustainable Fashion, UAL and Rosetta Arts. This phase of the project, Weaving The Threads of Refugee Entrepreneurs welcomed a cohort of local refugees and asylum seekers to engage in textile-making workshops funded by Newham Council.

Some products will be for sale, and all profits will go to the designers and makers of the work.

Please note that unfortunately there is no step-free access to the gallery at this time, and it is located upstairs at the Gainsborough Learning Centre.
