Mayflower400 partner destinations:
Universities network forms to commemorate 2020 anniversary
Institutions from across the UK united to explore collaborative opportunities around the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower’s voyage.
The journeys undertaken by the Mayflower Pilgrims stretched from the East Midlands across to Holland, from Harwich to Southwark, and along the South Coast – before leaving for their historic voyage to America.
Academics and practitioners across various disciplines worked on projects which reflected upon, critique and engage with this four-centuries-old history and heritage.
The network built their collaborative approach to the Mayflower 400 anniversary year and the opportunities to forge new relationships in places connected by this long history.
