Art Comes To Raigmore

by John - 14:10 on 27 October 2011

The Scottish National Gallery holds an annual art competition for schools.

This year there was a record-breaking 5,895 entries from nurseries and schools across the country.
As Scottish Widows, who sponsor the competition, is also an official sponsor of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, this year's young artists were asked to respond to one of five themes with an Olympic flavour:-
'Celebrate'; 'Splish, Splash, Splosh'; 'Super Shoes – Higher, Faster, Further'; 'Move Your Body'; and 'Traces, Tracks and Trails'. 

The 53 winning works have been on exhibition throughout the summer at the Scottish National Gallery, they now go on tour throughout Scotland - from the 29th October they will be on display at Raigmore.
