About
Around the World is a digital art-meets-football project made with people from all over the world who now call Sheffield home, to celebrate the World Cup.
Bringing together art, football and community, the project celebrated Sheffield’s rich football heritage alongside the diverse cultures of people from around the world who now call the city home.
As part of the celebrations, we broke a new world record for the longest multi-club football scarf - 186m long!
A city wide celebration of sanctuary
The city-wide tour culminated in a vibrant public event in the Peace Gardens, showcasing the creativity and stories gathered throughout the project. The celebration featured contributions from Amar Shah, Brown Girl Sport, Farah Chamma and Inderjit Bhogal OBE, and was hosted by Sile Sibanda.
