STATE OF THE ART
It was an art exhibition with a difference at the Royal High School Bath as the talented local artist picked to showcase their work to celebrate the school’s 20th birthday was the school’s very own caretaker, Perry Harris. Perry, well-known in Bath and beyond for his cartoons, sketches and watercolours, has worked at the Royal High School for over 20 years, and lives on the grounds of the Lansdown girls’ school. Poetically, an exhibition of his work cataloguing his time at the school – entitled 20 Years Art, Work by Perry Harris – was chosen as an ideal way to celebrate two decades since the merger between the Royal School and Bath High, in 1998. Guests enjoyed a champagne reception accompanied by music from Royal High School pupils Lucia Liu and Winona Tong, playing the piano, and harpist Holly Lancaster, and proceeds from the evening went to the Bath annual arts event Forest of Imagination.
