"The Museum represents a living memorial and is more than just a static display. Through this space we have created an arena, which enables us to reaffirm our identity, celebrate our heritage and confront the complexities of our history."
Vincent Kolbe- Ex-resident and Museum Trustee.

Using this guiding principle, the Museum has produced many diverse exhibitions, involving a multitude of talented individuals. Visual artists, conceptual artists, sculptors, painters, musicians, curators and writers have all left their indelible mark on these creative expressions.

The current permanent exhibition, Digging Deeper, is a rich visual experience documenting various aspects of life in District Six. Visitors are allowed to get deeper into the lives of ex-residents, giving insight into their social, cultural, economic and political make up.
