Following major events in London, Berlin and Birmingham, the Memories Carried international campaign and touring exhibition is appearing for one-night-only in Paris at Les Amarres, on the banks of the Seine.
The exhibition series brings together over 20 international photographers and activists, including artists from Palestine, the wider Arab Region, across Latin America, the UK and Europe, all committed to raising funds for charities on the ground in Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT) and Lebanon.
The tour will visit London, Birmingham and Newcastle, UK; Paris, France and Berlin, Germany, supporting Al Haq, Al Mezan, The Ghassan Abu Sittah Children’s Fund, and Health Workers for Palestine.
Raising funds for these grassroots human rights and humanitarian causes, the Memories Carried exhibition and campaign is a collaboration between Art Forward and Amnesty International UK.
Les Amarres is a vibrant solidarity space, established in 2020. It repurposed former port facilities into a community hub and venue aimed at supporting vulnerable populations, particularly those facing precarious living conditions.
