The combination of poetry, colour and the detail of the craft is wonderful and a very fitting commemoration for remembrance day. I would encourage everyone heading to Tŷ Pawb over the next week or so to take a few moments for a closer look.
“A huge thank you also to the team at Wrexham Visitor Centre for devising and coordinating this brilliant, community-led project.”
The River of Poppies will be on display at Tŷ Pawb’s reception area until Monday 20th November.
