Brent is renowned for its vibrant diversity, where every street echoes with the languages, cuisines, and traditions of its multicultural residents. At the heart of this rich mosaic stands CVS Brent, an organisation devoted to nurturing and celebrating the borough’s cultural heritage through innovative projects and community engagement.
To celebrate this richly diverse heritage, We Wear Heritage will hold an exhibition at Brent Museum showcasing all the stories we collect. This unique event will provide an opportunity to experience Brent’s cultural heritage through the universal language of fashion.
