Museum of Memories: Remembering Partition

4 August 2017 5pm | 5 & 6 AUGUST 11 AM onwards

This August marks 70 years since the largest mass migration in modern human history, the 1947 Partition of the subcontinent into India, Pakistan and later Bangladesh. 

We were proud to present Remembering Partition: Museum of Memories, on August 4|5|6. The 3 days were packed with a range of discussions, performances, screenings, exhibitions and much more, all united by the common thread of Partition.

We took the audience on a journey into a past so we can understand the present, and hope for a better future with #RememberingPartition.

Museum of Memories: Remembering Partition was a collaborative pop-up museum that marked 70 years since the Partition of the subcontinent into India, Pakistan and Bangladesh (then East Pakistan). Over the course of 3 days, we attempted to understand the context and the legacies of the largest migration in modern human history. 

The event was a deconstructed museum which was split into two attractions:
A. Exhibitions across The Trees and the Godrej One campus
B. Performances, discussions, showcases, screenings and more in the Auditorium at Godrej One.
