Join us for a panel event with our three writers in residence - Romalyn Ante, Jennifer Wong and Christie Watson - and artist Haleema Aziz.
The title refers to the Filipino custom of migrant workers sending boxes of items back home and is inspired by Romalyn Ante’s poem 'Notes Inside a Balikbayan Box'. The project took the Balikbayan Box as its central theme, exploring the spirit of nursing as experienced by a range of migrant workers across the UK.During our exhibition, 'Moved to Care', the RCN Library and Museum hosted one visual artist (Haleema Aziz) and three writers in residence (Romalyn Ante, Jennifer Wong and Christie Watson). This event brings all the artists together to explore the inspiration they have taken from the exhibition themes, and the experiences of migrant nurses.
This event is open to all and takes place in person and online. The in-person event will be BSL interpreted and have live captions.
