Migration connects

Exhibition in DZM 2019/2020

Intervention in the permanent exhibition: In the exhibition “suitcase stories. Migration connects ”the participants told their own migration stories: What reasons led them to Ulm? And how do you make this city your new, second, maybe even your only home? The so-called “suitcase stories” brought personal items from their luggage to speak. With brief comments on exhibits or entire rooms of the permanent exhibition, the group showed what connects them today with the Danube Swabians and the DZM. Interactive and participatory co-mingling stations invited visitors to become active themselves and expand the exhibition.

A small accompanying brochure has been published for the exhibition.
