Our online celebration is named after Romesh Gunesekara’s beautiful submission: Anthem of Arrival. sadaa.co.uk/anthems-of-arriv… We have paintings from Juginder Lamba and poems from Farrukh Dhondy. Rahila Gupta elegantly juxtaposes the contradictions of being black and British.

Anthems of Arrival

We commissioned nine artists and writers linked to the SADAA collection to produce work to celebrate our 25th anniversary in 2024.
