Slavery Remembrance Day

National Maritime Museum · Romney Rd, London SE10 9NF, United Kingdom

23 August 2026

Free

A full day of workshops, screenings and quiet remembrance marking the long, unfinished struggle for emancipation, staged across galleries usually devoted to ships and empire. Free and running all afternoon, it asks harder questions of the building than most visits ever require.
