With 50 mosaics creating a pathway through the park, this collection of public art reflects the park’s purpose as a place of convergence of both cultures and pathways in Whalley. Created in collaboration with school groups, families, and organisations, these circular mosaics images pay tribute to local history and present community, as well as nature and family.
