Draden van ons slavernijverleden (free)

From February to July, hundreds of people in North Brabant embroidered, tufted and quilted. Together, we brought artist Victor Sonna's design to life. The result? A metre-long tapestry that is not only a tribute, but also a shared memory and an invitation to conversation. With this project, we make visible together what often remained hidden: the traces of slavery in our own environment.

The completed tapestry will be on display for free on our Panoramadeck from 22 July and will then travel through the province.
