Using a grant from the Patricia Fay Memorial Fund, The Arts Society Tyneside supported a project that brought people together to create songs and music about seeking sanctuary.
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.
