Public Trust // Giant promise board

Take a pause and make a promise on a giant outdoor board in the middle of Gloucester // Thursday 4-Saturday 6 July // Kings Walk Gl1 1EA // FREE

On the weekend of the UK general election, come and take a pause for a totally unique experience all about PROMISES.

  • Make a promise for yourself
  • Choose an object that means something to you and swear on it
  • Seal it – in ink, or wax, or blood
  • See it displayed loud and proud on the giant board in the middle of Kings Walk
  • Get your signed and sealed promise to take home with you – a unique commemorative artwork

“It was a really amazing experience – sort of weird, but in a good way. It was quite beautiful to stop and think about who I make promises to and why. I’ve never done anything like it before!”
– member of the public who made a promise
