The Bridgnorth & District Twinning Association were invited by Thiers to contribute six painted banners to be displayed in Thiers' town centre from June until October 2016. 


St Leonard's Primary School, St John's Primary School, Highley Primary School, the Endowed School, the 1st Bridgnorth Guides and the Bridgnorth & District Arts Association each agreed to paint a banner. The 2 metre by 1 metre blank plastic banners were supplied by Thiers and the Twinning Association contributed towards the cost of acrylic paint.


The theme for this year is "Plaisirs et Gourmandises", translated as "Enjoyment of Food".


A total of 80 artists were involved with ages ranging from 4 years to 85 years and the results of their endeavour are shown below.
