We’ll look forward to welcoming visitors once again this Spring and seeing how this space continues to evolve 🪧
it is not enough to wish for peace - you must be an instrument for it
it takes strength to be gentle placard illustration
peace must have bite
Our visitor feedback has shown that people have really enjoyed reading other people’s contributions to the space. We’ve also really enjoyed reading them and thinking about the ways we can reflect on them as a museum.
“violence is never the answer, in solidarity with: people of palestine who reject the violence of hamas brace COs who refuse to join IDF courageous dissidents who say no to russian imperialism voices in ukraine that question inevitability of war everyone who says no to violence”
“existence is the greatest form of resistance” with a trans flag underneath
one banner which says “ceasefire now free palestine” and another with a web and illustrations which says “what we do to the web, we do to ourselves”
Some of the banners respond to the displays in our exhibition, some offer new or alternative perspectives, and some of them contribute something entirely new that we have yet to touch upon in our displays.

In the final section of our exhibition, we ask visitors to contribute their voice to our space as their own peaceful protest by making a banner.
