Striving for Unity | New Exhibition at The Galleria for South Asian Heritage Month

This July, the Khalsa Youth Football Academy is bringing a special pop-up exhibition to The Galleria. Running from the 1st to the 31st of July, between 10am and 6pm, the Striving for Unity exhibition offers a unique look into cultural heritage, community resilience, and the power of sport.

The initiative, led by Bal Singh, showcases over three decades of work by the Khalsa FA. Developed in collaboration with the ACE-accredited Garden City Collection, the display highlights how a local futsal club transformed into a national and international symbol of togetherness, actively challenging racism, and inequality.

Visitors can explore a mix of personal stories, photography, memorabilia, and interactive displays. These pieces reflect the lived experiences of academy members and the wider community, illustrating how sport serves as a force for social change and identity.

As part of the South Asian Heritage Month celebrations, the exhibition honours the history and contributions of South Asian communities in Hertfordshire and beyond. It is an invitation to reflect on the past while inspiring future generations to continue building inclusive and connected communities.

Location: The Galleria
Dates: 1st - 31st July
