Nationwide arts festival celebrating refugees from Nazi Europe and their contribution to British culture

March 2020 marked the official end of the festival, but also the beginning of a longer-term commitment to celebrating the impact of this remarkable generation of émigrés under the Insiders/Outsiders umbrella, in the form of an ongoing programme of online events on topics broadly related to the theme of the original festival.
