The junior competition received a record number of entries this year. Our selection panel of Gary Hodges, Sophie Green, Sevina Yates, Alison Nicholls and Mark Adlington, who were joined by the trustees, Rob and Sara, were so impressed with the standard.

Well done to the twenty finalists – these artworks will be exhibited in Edinburgh and London and sold via online auction in support of our Project Fund (concludes 17 November).

All twenty finalists go forward to the People’s Choice Award – have your say and vote for your favourite (voting closes 19 October).
