PRESTIGIOUS ART WORKSHOP "CHANGES LIVES"

31 A Level art students took part in an intensive life drawing workshop provided by the Royal Academy Outreach programme at Westonbirt today.

"It is a real privilege for Westonbirt to have had a close relationship with the RA for the last 20 years, helping them to pilot their outreach programme," reports Mrs Mary Phillips, Head of Art.  "The girls greatly enjoyed today's course, gaining confidence and insight that will stand them in good stead for their A Level Art work and for Art College."

Former pupil Jennifer Choi, when revisiting the school recently, recalled her own experience of taking part in Royal Academy Outreach at Westonbirt.  "It was a life-changing experience!" she reported.
