Threads of Remembrance

Created in partnership with BAMM (British Association for Modern Mosaic), Threads of Remembrance brings together more than 100 individual mosaic pieces, each inspired by memories of time shared with loved ones.

 

Professional mosaic artists from across the world have contributed their work, coming together to create a singular piece inspired by the neural patterns created when we remember.

Much like the Arboretum itself, the final piece will share a rich tapestry of stories, each one adding meaning to its whole.

25 Years of... the National Memorial Arboretum

In 2026, we will mark 25 years since the Arboretum officially opened to the public.

 

Throughout the year, we’ll be celebrating the stories, milestones, and moments that have shaped our story so far, as we look to the future, with a special programme of exciting exhibitions, events and activities.
