Birmingham art gallery Ikon this month presents the fourth annual Migrant Festival - a four-day programme mixing visual art, music, film and performance. 

Celebrating the contribution made by refugees and migrants to Birmingham and the UK, the 2022 festival comprises digital and live events including performances by musicians curated by Celebrating Sanctuary Birmingham; our annual Soapbox event featuring quick-fire presentations from individuals and groups supporting migrants in the Midlands; talks with artists including Keith Piper with Robert Beckford and Felicity Allen; plus a series of family events and guided tours. The Migrant Festival 2021 is organised to coincide with Ikon’s exhibition A Very Special Place: Ikon in the 1990s.
