Patchwork Coat of Hopes on display in church
A well-travelled patchwork coat created to highlight people's "hopes and fears" about the environment has gone on display in Haworth.
The Coat of Hopes, which is on a tour of the UK, was carried 10 miles (16km) by foot from Bradford Cathedral on Saturday.
Barbara Keal, the artist behind the project, said her intention was to focus people's minds on "the climate and ecological emergency".
A talk discussing the coat's creation is set to be held at 19:30 BST on Tuesday at St Michael & All Angels Church.
The coat was carried on foot from the south coast of England to Glasgow in Scotland for the COP26 climate conference in 2021 and is now making its way back down south.
It is made from 600 colourful patches, which were sewn on by different communities as it journeyed around the UK.
Reverend Oli Preston, rector of Haworth, wore the coat during the walk from central Bradford to St Michael & All Angels Church over the weekend.
Mr Preston said: "What a privilege for us to host such a magnificent piece of art which illustrates so many communities hopes and fears for our environment.
“People are welcome to come and view it as well as meet some of the coat makers and take part in repair workshops.”
The coat had been on display at Bradford Cathedral since the start of June.
It will remain on show in Haworth until Wednesday, when it continues its journey south via Hebden Bridge, Sheffield and Lincoln.
