For five years, Ikon has produced The Migrant Festival, a free annual event that celebrates Birmingham as a city of migration, sanctuary and refuge.
This year’s festival features projects by three Birmingham photographers – Vanley Burke, Maryam Wahid and Ayesha Jones – who are collaborating with inner-city communities to share their stories of migration. The festival also includes artists’ talks, music events by Celebrating Sanctuary Birmingham and a family workshop.
