Pilgrimage exhibition - commission4mission at St Saviour's St Albans



commission4mission’s next exhibition will be at St Saviour’s Church (25 Sandpit Lane, St Albans AL1 4DF) for the Alban Pilgrimage.

Entitled ‘Pilgrimage’, the exhibition, from 23rd – 30th June (9.00am – 5.00), will feature work by: Hayley Bowen; Harvey Bradley; Irina Bradley; Lucy Crabtree; Valerie Dean; MaryJean Donaghey; Jonathan Evens; Terry Ffyffe; Michael Garaway; Clorinda Goodman; Deborah Harrison; Anthony Hodgson; Susan Latchford; David Millidge; Adeliza Mole; Dorothy Morris; and Victoria Norton.

The Alban Pilgrimage takes place annually and is held in honour of the city’s namesake, St Alban, who died on 22nd June over 1700 years ago. Stunning 12-ft tall carnival puppets and a procession of around 300 children, teenagers and adults from the local community dramatize the tale of Alban’s martyrdom, with the final scene taking place at the West End of St Albans Cathedral, the oldest site of continuous Christian worship in Britain.
