This year, the Friends of the City Art Centre will celebrate their 50th Anniversary. To commemorate this jubilee occasion our Schools Engagement Officer invited schools to participate in an art competition with the theme of friendship. Generous prizes were kindly donated by the Friends.
The entries received from all schools involved were fantastic. The top three winners were voted for by a panel of City Art Centre staff. It was a great win for Clovenstone Primary School who really impressed the judges!
1st prize was awarded to Callie and Andreea from Clovenstone Primary School P5 class for their wonderful, eye-catching, collaborative artwork. They will each receive a £50 art materials voucher.
2nd prize was awarded to Michelle from Clovenstone Primary School P7 class for her beautiful drawing depicting the companionship between dogs and their owners. Michelle will receive a £60 art materials voucher.
3rd prize was awarded to Thasa from Clovenstone Primary School P6/7 class for this fantastically unique representation of friendship in the form of different shoes standing together. Thasa will receive a £40 art materials voucher.
The school will also receive £100 to spend on art materials for their pupils to use.
Thanks again to the Friends of the City Art Centre for their support. These prizes will no doubt make such a positive impact on these young artists and Clovenstone Primary School.
