Harlesden Library will be hosting a bit of the Olympics by showcasing a major project for the 2012 Cultural Olympiad.

The Cultural Olympiad is a national celebration of culture that aims to give everyone a chance to be part of London 2012. Brent Museum has been selected to work on the International Stories of the World programme, which will feature a series of exciting exhibitions that will reconnect museum collections with the communities they came from.

Many of London's treasures originiated in this country but many others arrived after long journeys from the four corners of the world. London: World City is a 2012 project that will engage Londoners with these collections in creative ways.
