For the third year running TAS Wessex Area has sponsored the first prize of £500 for the Bath Open Art Prize. We feel that it is important to support emerging artists as they start on their career. Having a first and second prize, highly commended awards and a peoples award, given at the end of the exhibition run, encourages artists to participate. As well as having their work judged and critiqued by professional artists, their work is hung in a contemporary Gallery - 44AD, in Bath for two weeks.
The Arts Society South Cambs used their Community Grant to support musical workshops and concerts for pupils at neighbouring Sawston Village College giving 425 pupils a day they'll never forget!
