Embark on a cultural journey as 'Harmonies of Home' intertwines diverse artistic threads from a tapestry of realms across South West Asia, North Africa and its diasporas.

'Harmonies of Home: Artistic Threads that Bind Us'  is a cultural tapestry that interlaces diverse artistic expressions from South West Asia, North Africa, and their diasporas. We delve into themes of heritage, innovation, and shared narratives, celebrating the vibrant spirit of a region rich in cultural history. 

In its third year at Cromwell Place, we celebrate the cultural richness of the region, fostering understanding and appreciation for diverse identities and histories. This focus serves as a reminder of the importance of embracing cultural diversity and recognising the contributions of all communities to the global cultural landscape. What sets it apart is its seamless blend of traditional and contemporary art forms, creating a dialogue that transcends time and space. 

Be captivated by the array of artworks that resonate with universal human experiences and experience a unique glimpse into the cultural mosaic of the region. From intricate calligraphic pieces to evocative paintings, each piece tells a story, inviting viewers to explore the interconnectedness of humanity and belonging. 

'Harmonies of Home' provides a space for reflection and connection, where individuals from diverse backgrounds can find elements of familiarity and inspiration.

Over two weeks, we'll showcase works that resonate with the spirit of a region brimming with heritage, innovation, and shared narratives.
