The 5th annual Bookmark Project run by 1st Burley Brownies starts on Monday evening May 10th at 7pm.
We are a charity auction that auctions unique bookmarks created by authors, illustrators, actors and other celebrities.We have almost 400 bookmarks created by authors, illustrators, actors and other celebrities including Sir Quentin Blake, Dame Helen Mirren, Brian May, Axel Scheffler, Jo Brand and Cressida Cowell. We are hoping to raise as much money as possible to buy textbooks for the Grade 7 learners (costing £2100), large water storage tanks and also to be able to build two nursery classrooms.
Our auction takes place in May each year and all the money raised goes to support projects at Katiyo Primary School in Zimbabwe.
Unless stated otherwise all of our bookmarks are to the best of our knowledge unique creations created specifically for our project. They are created using a wide range of mediums some are sketched, others painted, some are collages and a number of our artists work digitally meaning your bookmark is printed but it will have been created specially for our project & yours is the only one there will ever be.
Please check out our auction here: www.jumblebee.co.uk/bookmarkproject2021 and bid on your favourites.If you would like to sponsor a textbook (they cost £7 each) please get in touch with Sharon at 1stburleybrownies@gmail.com
