DESCRIPTION:\nWe will be hosting family music sessions as part of our Col
 lections Centre exhibition\, Apna: Ours Yours Everybody's.\n\n\n29 Apr a
 nd 13 May.\n1pm\, free. \n\n\n-\n\n\nApna is a word used in many languag
 es across South Asia meaning ‘ours\, yours or everybody’s’. This reflect
 s how the Whitworth shares the collection that is housed here. In the Co
 llections Centre the curators hand over the reins\, in this case to Apna
 \, a South Asian women’s arts group based in Rossendale.\n\nThis display
  is a collaboration between the Whitworth and Apna\, telling stories of 
 women between two worlds. Significant textiles from their lives and obje
 cts from the gallery’s collection are displayed alongside pieces they ha
 ve made together\, seeking to revive textile traditions that are disappe
 aring. \n\nCeremonial clothes\, kantha embroidery and mirrorwork are amo
 ngst the things that have been chosen from the Whitworth’s collection. T
 hese sparked a range of stories\, from a monsoon on a wedding day in Pak
 istan to grey\, rainy days in the North of England. These stories - told
  through sessions in Rossendale and at the Whitworth - were literally sp
 un\, woven and stitched into the centre of each new piece.   \n\nApna in
 vite you to use this exhibition to come together and share stories with 
 family and friends\, old and new.
