WEST INDIAN FRONT ROOM

'I grew up learning that "cleanliness is next to godliness" and that no matter how poor we were, if the front room looked good, then we were decent people.' - Michael McMillan

Did you see Michael McMillan’s exhibition, The West Indian Front Room at the Geffrye Museum in 2006? You can now experience the project on a new  website www.thefrontroom.org - created in collaboration with Iniva. Michael was the writer of our production Master Juba.

The website provides access to photographs, audio interviews and learning resources as well as material from new exhibitions on living rooms of Moroccan, Turkish, Indonesian, Surinamese and Antillean migrants in Holland.
