Preston Guild 2012

8th March 2009


Preston Guild is an historic and highly significant celebration for Preston, which has been held every 20 years since 1379, (except during the Second World War when it was delayed by 10 years to 1952).


The next Guild celebrations are in 2012 and Preston Council want to make sure that this Guild is one of the best Guilds ever.

In order to plan and prepare for the Guild, they are consulting with a wide range of people including local businesses and community groups to find out more about how people would like to celebrate the Guild and how they might wish to get involved.

Nguzo Saba Young Style and Future Heritage Project

8th March 2009


Nguzo Saba Centre and Merseyside Dance Initiative presented a spectacular collaboration showcase event at the Harris Library on Saturday 14th June 2008. The event united music, dance and fashion design through analyses of cultural identity in a performance exploring traditions, helping other communities to understand and to conserve it for future generations through original and contemporary works of art.


Prescap’s involvement was to fundraise from Awards for All to get video and photography equipement to document the Nguzo Saba Young Style and Heritage project, to produce a DVD and showreel/ portfolio photos to help the young people carry their work forward into Higher Education or a career.
