Goldsmiths launches Windrush exhibition

The exhibition recreates lost Windrush landing cards

GOLDSMITHS have launched an exhibition, which recreates and displays the Windrush passenger landing cards destroyed by the Home Office in 2010.

Windrush: Arrival 1948 includes images, maps and a new transcription of the passenger list held at The National Archives, which has been used to make 1,027 individual landing cards.

The idea for the exhibit was conceived and curated by Dr John Price, Head of the Department of History at Goldsmiths, in collaboration with Will Cenci, Public Engagement Manager.
