Price: Free for all

In collaboration with Anti-Apartheid Legacy, ACTSA and AAM Archives, we welcome a new pop-up exhibition in our chapel now until 19 June.

All Shall Be Afforded Dignity is an exhibition marking 30 years since South Africa’s liberation from apartheid, offering a reflection on the global and ongoing pursuit of dignity, justice, and human rights.

Centred around the work of artist Norman Kaplan—whose lino-cuts and political cartoons document both resistance and hope—the exhibition explores themes of solidarity, democracy, and collective humanity.

The exhibition provides important background to the fiction of Alex La Guma, poetry of Dennis Brutus, and to the theatre of John Kani, also too the political action of the ANC, ARM and the London Recruits.
