Exhibition News


Congratulations to the Welcome To My Yard Team and to everyone who came along to join in. the exhibition. The night was a huge success and we had so much fun putting it on for everyone. We got so much great feedback from people about the work, listened to the sounds of Nepal followed by DJ Dou Dou Malicious, had the opportunity to make Nepali flags and traditional Nepalese handmade paper, visit our Durbar Square Cinema and eat endless momos from our momo stall. Check out the the 2 photo slideshows of the making and of the night to see a glimpse how we went though they really don't do the night justice.

In a big way we have already acheived our goal, we have put together an amazing photography book and created an art exhibition to showcase this stunning work...done! However, not satisfied to simply bring this work from the children in Kathmandu to you, we thought that we could also raise some money for them too.

Have a look at our fundraising thermometer to see what we have been aiming for. We can proudly tell you that thanks to the huge efforts of everyone involved we are two thirds of our way to our goal.

Therefore we are offering you an exlusive deal to get ourselves to the top

****We have bulk bought some books from Lulu.com so we can offer them to you at a great price of £10 (plus p&p) instead of the usual £18.99 (plus p&p)***

please email barefootjasmine@googlemail.com to make your order while stocks last!

Once again thanks to everyone who've shown that great people can make anything happen.

Look out for the following highlights on the blog
