themselves from HIV.
Just
for Schools
Looking for a partner school to pair with in the Golden Tapestry?
An important element in the Golden Tapestry is that we are actively encouraging the pairing of schools in different Commonwealth countries, either introducing them to each other or involving schools which already have links. The principle is that the two schools will work on exactly the same briefs, so they can compare notes with each other and their two canvases will be displayed next to each other at various exhibitions. Our aim is that the links established between schools will endure beyond the project, providing a valuable legacy on which schools and their communities can build. If you would like to be paired in this way, please email us or telephone us on +44 (0)1869 233165
