Beverley Minster Destination Project – Songs of Pilgrimage
This week, one of our school choirs had the privilege of piloting The Beverley Minster Destination Project by performing Songs of Pilgrimage.
The children practised in school on several occasions this term, using music to share the stories of Beverley Minster as a place of pilgrimage and reflection.
The project forms part of a wider initiative to restore, preserve and share the Minster with both the local community and visitors from further afield.
The project is supported by The National Lottery Heritage Fund, The Beverley Minster Old Fund, Two Churches One Town and the Friends of Beverley Minster.
Further information is available on the Minster’s website:
