Civic art offer moments of delight and respite in public spaces, and they can also hold power to be an educational tool. The World Reimagined is a series of specially designed public artworks as part of a UK-wide art and education initiative aimed to transform how we understand the Transatlantic Slave Trade and its impact. Join Ashley Shaw Scott Adjaye, artistic director of The World Reimagined; Foday Dumbuya, fashion designer and artist of one of the 130 globes; and artist Thomas J Price, who was commissioned to create a permanent public sculpture to honour the Windrush Generation. Chaired by Christine Checinska.
