An amazing exhibition – Tree of Life and Open Heaven

An amazing exhibition of textiles and embroidery normally only seen in cathedrals due to its size is on display in St Martin’s Church, Liskeard. This is it s first visit to Cornwall.

The artist, Jacqui Parkinson, has had her work displayed in most of the cathedrals of England. She designed the glass screen and south door in St.Martin’s.

Tree of Life consists of three huge stitched silk panels on a subject that runs though the bible. It took eighteen months and a million stitches!  Visitors find it moving and uplifting – and there’s lots to interest children too.

Tree of Life with Open Heaven are on show from 28th April to 7th June, open during the week from 9 to 12 on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Special group visits can be arranged through the Church Office 01579 347411.
