Destination Sweetheart

25.09.2020 - 26.09.2021

Migrants of love leave their homes, family and friends to build a future with their loved one. ‘Destination Sweetheart’ was an exhibition about migrating for love from the Red Star Line period to the present day. Letters, interviews and personal objects offered insight into heart-warming stories, as well confrontational ones. 

Children’s Committee

[2021-present day]

In 2021 we started the Children’s Committee, made up of 7 children who meet every month to discuss and think about ideas for the museum. Wilde Raven guided us through this journey and translated the children’s ideas into concrete actions.
