St Joseph's College Art competition 2020

Communities and the social landscape have inspired artists worldwide for many centuries. Community provides support and allows us to share commonalities within a social unit.

This has resonance now more than ever. As a College community we regularly come together to celebrate and participate in various events, in our day to day learning

environment, in Chapel and at various festivals including Rugby and the Arts. In these unusual times, we use technology to come together as a school community. The UK comes together as a national community to pay tribute to carers and the NHS, 'Clap for our Carers' every Thursday at 8pm.

Some of our artists have captured these themes within their art work. This competition was open to all ages throughout the College and the response was fantastic. We have brought together work from all of the artists in one special publication.

Congratulations to all our young artists - your work and creativity never cease to inspire and amaze us.
