After the huge success of last year’s competition The Harpur Trust are running a second art competition with the wellbeing theme of ‘Where’s your happy place?’.

The Harpur Trust have partnered with The Culture Challenge to offer two CPD sessions for art teachers and non-art specialists at The Higgins, Bedford. This is open to all Bedford Borough schools, regardless of whether they are taking part in the art competition. Taking place on the 13th and 20th September, these twilight sessions will involve working along practising artists to learn new techniques for you to take back to the classroom.

With Wellbeing high on the agenda, and the opportunity for free artist’s workshops and staff CPD, we encourage all schools to apply.

To find out more and to book, please follow this link and download the schools communication pack. The deadline for booking workshops with their Visiting Artists is Friday 14th July 2017.
