Mexicolore’s Maya world backdrop for schools workshops
GOING FREE! Our beautiful Maya world backdrop, which has done us proud in a hundred or more schools since we had it designed in 2014. It’s now surplus to our requirements as our main flagship programme has evolved. WOULD YOUR SCHOOL LIKE IT...?!
It measures around 4m wide and 1.25m high, comes with supporting stands (just two now as the middle one is missing) and carrying bag. The backdrop material is heavy fabric. It was made for us by leading London events management company ThemeTraders. It’s in fine condition. It cost hundreds of £, but we’re happy for it to go to the first school or other educational institution willing to come to our Battersea, London base to collect it...
STOP PRESS: It’s gone! In the end we decided to donate it to Vanessa Bunton, who runs PUKU B. Vanessa is an experienced archaeologist and teacher. Check out her services to schools by following the link below...
