Great place! Been there twice in one month, but have not made it to the exhibitions as yet. The cafe is so very zen, with stellar service, and food&drink to die for! The museum shop also has many gems. Basically, there is so much info on black cultural heritage and events, as well as good hospitality for all, when you get there. Love the place!
Simply amazing experience! Great exhibits while the curator and staff are very knowledgeable providing a highly interactive experience. The facility is excellent, modern and very clean. The BCA provides an authentic experience of black cultural history . Pretty much overwhelmed by my last visit, so strong urge anyone to visit, since it's open to diversity.
I visited the Windrush Exhibition. It was good, not great. I was hoping for more than just a small room with a few pictures and some voice recordings which lasted about 3 minutes. The centre itself is very cosy and welcoming. The cafe is excellent if you want a bite and relax. The forecourt just outside the cafe is spacious and would be great to have a meet-up. The shop has some great selection of books and gift items. I also spent some time in the library archives upstairs. Well worth visiting. You can take photos of the material which is great if you are doing some research. A great place! Staff were friendly and helpful.
A great space to learn about Black History in the UK and the experiences of Black people. When I went this week they had an audio-visual installation called Black Men's Minds about the experiences of black men in mental health care, which was really intense, but in a really interesting and thought-provoking way. There is also a timeline of Black History in the UK everything we weren't taught in school and a great gift shop. Would definitely recommend and will go back with my family in future.
A wonderful place to learn about the history of black people in the UK in a lovely building. I visited the Home exhibition showing the decor and furnishings in a typical Windrush generation home. Any person who grew up in a Caribbean household in that era would really relate this exhibition, it was excellent. The display showing the timeline of black people in the UK was fascinating, as were the displays showing the experiences of those who came from the Caribbean to the UK in the post- World War II years. The gift shop has a great range of books, that was good to see. Also, the staff were very helpful. Take a trip to Brixton to visit here.
Wonderful people who do a wonderful job in maintaining the message of black British history and holding interesting events to network and learn. I love what the BCA represent and how they continue to deliver such value to the public
I absolutely loved my visit here. The staff at the front desk were warm towards not only me, but others that came in after me. The energy and vibe in the cafe is and the servers are genuine and warm hearted. The food was excellent too. The installation was very well displayed and the facility itself is clean and modern. Great place to learn about black history or just to get a coffee and hang out.
A great heritage site located a 5 minutes walk from Brixton Station. There are regular workshops held here and alot of history around the historic impact of black people in the United Kingdom. There are also mental health and poetry events and I would highly recommend attending these if you are in the area.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
