St Ives In Stitches Community Project |
Exhibited through January and February - and well worth seeing. The hand stitched banners of Wharf Road produced by - St Ives In Stitches Community Project. A beautiful portrayal of St Ives as it is today by members of the town community. The project starts again in February - when work starts on a new banner depicting Fore Street. All are welcome to come along to an "Open Stitch" at St Ives Salvation Army Hall at 10.30 am on Wednesday 6th February. More info is on:

The group would like to thank Councillor Andrew Mitchell for contributing to the project from his Community Chest Fund - the money will cover the rent for the hall over the next few months.
