This year’s competition, which is now in its third year and organised by Browne Jacobson, is challenging local primary and secondary school children across the North West to produce a piece of artwork that showcases interesting and creative ways to protect the environment. This year’s entries will be judged by Philip Hodgkinson, co-founder of the book the Good Old Drawing, and well-known children’s illustrator Martin Impey. The deadline for entries is Friday 27 February. Winners and runners up will each receive their prizes from the Lord Mayor of the City of Manchester Councillor Susan Cooley at a special exhibition of all the shortlisted entries to be held at the Museum of Science & Industry in Manchester. Dai Durbridge, Education Partner at Browne Jacobson, said: “Children have a fantastic imagination and this year’s competition is a great way for local pupils to think creatively about the environment in which they live and how it can be preserved and improved for future generations to come. “Schools across the North West have really engaged with the competition since we launched it over two years ago and whilst there are only four weeks left to submit entries it is not too late for schools to register their interest and participate.” Each year over 1000 entrants take part from schools across the North West and this year the competition is open to pupils in four age categories: · Mini Monets (4-7) · Potential Picassos (8-11) · Dazzling Da Vincis (12-14) · Wannabe Warhols (15 & 16) For more information or to register for the North West Schools Art Competition, go to http://www.education-advisors.com. talk to us Lakhbir Rakar +44 (0)121 237 3926 or search our people our business contact us press office press coverage articles press releases related services resources case studies related services & sectors education site map | accessibility | diversity | privacy statement | the small print | how we use cookies | phishing alerts | 0370 270 6000 your needs services sectors products your role training about us our business contact us press office resources case studies join us latest opportunities trainee applications benefits pupillage case studies - our people Our websites Browne Jacobson BJ Insurance Lawyers BJ Retail Law BJ Health Law Education Advisors BJ Legal Training Trainee Talk Law Less Ordinary © Copyright Browne Jacobson LLP 2015 - All rights reserved
