A FULL size model based on War Horse, along with more than 12 banners and other sculptures and installations were part of "Blessed are the Peacemakers" in Burnham and Slough. Mona Lisa Arts and Media joined forces with St Peter's Church, Burnham, St Mary's, Slough and the Royal British Legion for an art exhibition commemorating World War One.
The work looks at the effects of war, the suffragettes and the role of women, life in Burnham 100 years ago and ideas about peace.
A youth group, the Girl's Brigade and adults with special needs all joined forces with Mona Lisa Arts and Media to produce art work inspired by the Beatitudes line "Blessed are the Peacemakers". Ten per cent of the money made from sales of art work were donated to the St Mary's Lighting Appeal.
Visitors were asked to make a poppy to add to a poppy chain. A home is needed for the 8ft by 4ft by 5ft horse.
Proceeds will go to the youth group that created it.
