ONLINE from 7th July 2020
VISIT THE VIRTUAL GALLERY
After the sadness of having to postpone our 8th annual dot-art Schools exhibition due to the corona virus pandemic, we are thrilled to be able to hold this dot-art Schools virtual exhibition so that the creative work of children and young people from our participating schools can still be shared and celebrated online. We’d like to say a HUGE thank you to Arts Council England for making this possible.
Following a judges’ shortlist and an online public vote, the 2020 exhibition showcases the winning work from each of our 76 participating schools. The overall winners of the 2020 dot-art Schools Competition were announced at a our first VIRTUAL prize-giving ceremony on Zoom, on 7th July, where the top three students from each of the participating schools in the Liverpool City Region were also celebrated.
You can also watch the recording of the virtual prize giving on YouTube:
