Windrush Food Culture exhibition
About the exhibition
Caribbean food is now part of Britain’s national appetite - from jerk chicken at Notting Hill Carnival, to patties on the high street and sorrel during the holiday season. Behind every bite and memory is a deeper story and meaning.
Windrush Food Culture is an exhibition at the National Maritime Museum exploring how the Windrush Generation brought not only their flavours, but their memory, resilience, creativity and techniques to post-war Britain.
The display traces the journey of food as comfort, survival, celebration, resistance and sustenance.
Windrush Food Culture is produced by the National Windrush Museum in collaboration with Royal Museums Greenwich.
