Newham Council has organised a programme of events to celebrate the cultural contributions of many of its communities as part of Black History Month.
The programme, taking place across the borough throughout October and early November, is based on the theme of recognising the past, shaping the future. It will include poetry, film screenings, theatre and music performances, workshops and author events. The programme has been shaped by the feedback received from those who attended last year’s Black History Month celebrations.
Find all the events taking place in the borough on the Black History Newham website.

Black History Month is a truly borough-wide celebration, with events taking place at more than 20 venues. Find out what’s on near you and check accessibility.
