Story

For thousands of years people have travelled vast distances to escape war and persecution. Many have come to Sheffield, the UK’s first City of Sanctuary. The exhibition of paintings shows something of the terrifying experiences and journeys people have undertaken in order to find safety.

We are fundraising for two amazing charities, ASSIST and CITY OF SANCTUARY, who support asylum seekers and refugees in Sheffield. Please donate to these great causes.
