THE PEMBRIDGE TAPESTRIES – THE 10 TH ANNIVERSARY SINCE THEIR

COMPLETION AND EXHIBITION

In Pembridge Church we love to celebrate and we’re doing it again! In 2015 we

had an amazing Flower Festival to announce the completion of the 12 tapestries

and now after 10 years on exhibition we are inviting you, the people of the parish

(and beyond) to come together once again!

We’re delighted that Andy Davies, a local Pembridge resident, has written words

and music about each of the twelve tapestries that represent 1000 years of the

history of our village. Andy, along with other instrumentalists and a group of

singers will be presenting his work on Saturday 8 th March in Pembridge Church

from 6.00pm until 8.00pm. That the work of local historians and our stitchers

from the tapestry group is being presented in this unique way is truly inspiring.

It will be an evening for everyone and not to be missed! Wine and refreshments

will be on offer!

Since the tapestries were completed the group has also worked on the

Pembridge Map, the two Jubilee tapestries, altar frontals for our village school, a

tapestry church window (presented to the school) and now our latest piece, a

new altar frontal for the Lady Chapel. All of these pieces will be on exhibition in

church from 3.00pm until 5.00pm also on 8 th March and again refreshments will

be available while you are visiting the exhibition.

We look forward to seeing you and celebrating with us.
