Why us?
To ensure the exhibition was a success, the school's art lead, Amna Butt, enlisted our help as specialists in delivering successful school art exhibitions. The collaboration resulted in a professional and visually impressive exhibition, where children were able to showcase their creativity and get recognition for their hard work.
The Approach
Miss Butt believes that art is a vital subject and should be treated with the same importance as other subjects in the school curriculum. With this in mind, she organised an art exhibition to coincide with the school's Parents Evening.
Heather and David Bryant from Images School Art Exhibitions worked with Amna to plan the gallery. They catalogued framed and displayed the art in the school hall for all the pupils to come and view during the school day. Then from home time onwards families visited the gallery and were able to buy the framed art if they wished to do so. Heather and David handled all the sales and ensured that the event ran smoothly.
More than 400 children, from nursery to year six, completed a piece of artwork that was available to be purchased by their parents. The children's paintings covered a variety of themes, including space, science, modern, contemporary, and abstract art. The students were inspired by various artists, such as Banksy and Giuseppe.
