Disrupt? Peterloo and Protest
Type:Exhibition
People's History Museum, Left Bank, Spinningfields, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M3 3ER
Part of the national commemorations marking 200 years since the Peterloo Massacre in Manchester 1819, People’s History Museum’s (PHM) headline exhibition for 2019 'Disrupt? Peterloo and Protest' tells the story of Peterloo and highlights its relevance today, examining issues within our democracy that people are campaigning for 200 years on.
The exhibition features objects, including original Peterloo artefacts, brought together for the very first time, alongside pieces telling more recent stories of protest. A short film commissioned especially for the exhibition brings to life the story of Peterloo, protest, and the road to democratic reform.
A creative space within the exhibition is a Protest Lab; an experimental gallery for individuals, communities and organisations to use to share and develop their views and ideas for collective action.
This free exhibition is part of PHM’s 2019 programme of exhibitions, events and learning sessions exploring the past, present and future of protest and is supported by The National Lottery Heritage Fund.
