Have you booked your ticket?  We have one of our most exciting Peace Feasts yet coming up on 13th September - hosted on the historic SS Great Britain, with food by the wonderful Houria, it's a unique opportunity to share a meal with people from communities across Bristol and to explore how the journeys that the ship took people on might resonate with journeys that people in Bristol have made today. Tickets are on sale here... To read about some other recent Peace Feast highlights, click here.

Celebrating School Linking What a year it’s been for Bristol School Linking! By the end of the school year 14 primary schools, 26 classes and over 600 children had explored - Who am I? Who are we? Where do we live? and, How do we all live together? A highlight was seeing classes meet in person for the first time at the Arnolfini during School Linking Celebration Week. We are recruiting new year 5 classes to take part this academic year. Find out more here...
