During the Summer children in the Beverley Area were invited to submit work for an art competition sponsored by the Beverley-Nogent Twinning Association with support from Beverley Town Council.
The work was judged by local artist Emma Garness who was clearly delighted at the standard of the pictures.
The children were asked to find an artist they liked from France or Italy before creating a piece of art themselves.
The Winner in the older group was Ted who collaged on a hub cap after being inspired by Italian street artist Zed1. He can be seen receiving his token at his Scouts meeting from Martin Cox, Chair of the Twinning Association.
The runners-up were all from St Mary’s Primary School and Olivia, Harriet, Theodore and Octavia can be seen receiving their chocolate rewards at a celebration assembly.
The younger group was won by 1st Tickton Brownies who will receive their prize in early October.
Martin said, “It was lovely to see the talent of the children and to be able to present the winners with prizes. I would like to acknowledge the support of the Town Council and to thank Emma for her involvement.”
