Rivers of the World is the Festival’s flagship art and education project. Delivered in partnership with the British Council’s Connecting Classrooms and with support from HSBC Global Education Trust, the project links schools and over 2,000 young people around the world through common river themes.

In 2011, students from London, Bangkok (Thailand), Washington DC (USA), Istanbul (Turkey), Seoul (Korea), Buenos Aires (Argentina) and Derry / Londonderry & Donegal (Ireland) have worked with artists to create magnificent artworks inspired by the study of their, or their partner city’s, river.

The artworks are on display in the gallery@oxo and along the banks of the River Thames, and will also be enjoyed by millions of people in the coming months as the exhibition travels to riverside locations in each of the participating cities.
