Murmuration Arts creates community-focused projects in oral history, theatre, dance, and the arts. We work alongside communities to celebrate local and cultural heritage, building connections through shared stories.

Join us at Derby Museum as we round off our year-long citywide project in Derby with Nightlight Lullabies — a sound, light, and performance installation exploring the universal experience of parenting and how we soothe our babies to sleep. Inspired by research and creative workshops with Derbian parents, the project also includes collaborations with the Royal School for the Deaf Derby, D-Youth Hub, and Action Deafness.

Step into the magic of bedtime with Nightlight Lullabies — a wonderful way to spend time with family or friends. You and your little ones can sit on a glowing crescent moon, lie beneath a giant rotating mobile, listen to soothing lullabies, curl up next to a huge daffodil, and enjoy a bedtime story told in British Sign Language. The space is fully accessible, with baby changing facilities, lifts, and a café on site.

The exhibition is free and no booking is required.
Find us in the world collections gallery at Derby Museum and Art Gallery.
