More about the project: Our arts and heritage project delivers high quality oral history activity and video history captured with parents who are deaf. We are inviting new parents from many cultures to share songs they've sung and bedtime stories to help soothe babies to sleep, and to share experiences of parenthood. The work culminates with a unique exhibition / installation at Derby Museum and Art Gallery. It will feature a large listening post playing a lullaby created by Derby parents, a soundscape of the oral histories collected and a viewing post showing a Visual Vernacular film made with parents who are deaf. This project includes in-depth research with Derby communities, the history of lullabies and experiences of baby caregivers in Derby. We'll engage families from diverse cultural backgrounds, including different cultures and ethnic backgrounds as well as parents who speak English and British Sign Language.
