Art For Refugees

Art For Refugees

Buy yourself a beautiful, limited edition art print and help support refugees in Berkshire.

We’re excited to announce that talented local artist and friend of Refugee Support Group, Hadil Tamim, has created a limited series of art prints that she is selling, with a portion of every sale going to Refugee Support Group.

Hadil recently gifted her artwork, Blue Square, to Reading Museum in October 2022, where it is currently on display. Blue Square reflects the architectural and floral motifs of Reading Museum and Reading town, using her signature Islamic art style to symbolise unity and coming together as a community.

Now Hadil is selling 30 limited edition, signed prints of Blue Square for £120 each, with £20 from sale being donated to Refugee Support Group to fund our work helping refugees in Berkshire. Hadil will use the remainder of the money from sending the prints to fund art workshops for Palestinians in refugee camps.
