Stories of Migration & Belonging
Every immigrant has a unique story to share of their migration and of finding a sense of belonging in a new place. The stories often include personal memories of both inclusion and exclusion, experiences which not only shape individuals, families and communities but the city as a whole. This exhibition was produced in collaboration with Hamilton Immigration Partnership Council and members of our community who generously shared their personal stories.
