Faiths and Artefacts Day

The young people who came to the event
 
On the 16th November 2008 8 Christians and 12 Muslims met at The Youth Encounter Centre to meet and to find out about each others lives and faith. They did this through discussion and through creating a piece of art based on item they brought that were special to them. They worked with the artist Kirti Patel to create metal plates which were insribed with designs inspired by the artefacts they had brought. The day was made possible by a grant from the Museum and Libraries Archive.
