What We Carry Exhibition Continues

We’re delighted to be extending What We Carry – and we’re celebrating with a special extension party aboard HMS Unicorn!

Join us on Sunday 9 August for a special extension party celebrating this powerful, community-led exhibition, created through a collaboration between HMS Unicorn, Bring Together and members of the Ukrainians Together community.

Through personal stories, meaningful objects and shared experiences, What We Carry explores the things we carry with us through times of transition – physically, emotionally and symbolically.

Come aboard, explore the exhibition and help us celebrate What We Carry continuing here in Dundee!
