Thanks to an overwhelming public response we've already raised £184K covering initial infrastructure, professional costs, surveys, and planning application, the artwork itself including groundwork, foundations, plinth/base and engraving, delivery and installation, the creation of schools' Yeats/Bedford-Park workbooks, and the development of our
Discover Bedford Park with WB Yeats smartphone #visitorexperience.
Your donation now will go both to covering some of the past two years' increased costs since we set our crowdfund targets and helping us celebrate Yeats's Nobel Centenary Year with a range of
2023 events, as well as spreading the word worldwide about London's latest literary landmark and why it matters, and furthering our work with schools and community groups!
