John Downton Awards 2021
We have had 6 students from Highworth shortlisted for this year's John Downton Arts Award.
The John Downton Awards were first organised in 2000 at the request of Miss Hilda Downton – sister of the celebrated Kentish artist, poet and philosopher, to recognise the achievements of the young artists of Kent in the fields of painting and drawing.
The following students were shortlisted and their work can be viewed at the virtual gallery link: https://www.flickr.com/photos/194425675@N03/sets/72157720167385352/
