Reading Lockdown Quilt

By Amy on Sun 2 Aug

Our Lockdown Quilt is finally here...A patchwork of images, drawings, films, stories, poems and words chronicling the experiences of people in Reading during the Covid-19 pandemic of 2020. This is the story of lockdown in Reading, told by you. Expect to laugh, expect to smile, and maybe shed a tear too. http://www.risingsunartscentre.org/quilt.html
