Exhibition Label

"In the decade I've worked at Hackney Museum the borough has changed beyond recognition and the I Love Hackney campaign that started at Hackney Museum has been a big part of that. I've seen people wearing the badge in supermarkets and on school trips, at gigs and on allotments - the furthest we have spotted a badge is Australia! However you view the changes to the local area, Hackney continues to be an incredibly special place that resonates with people inside and outside London. I'm proud to tell people I work here."
