We’re delighted to present our latest post on the Steven Campbell Trust Schools Workshops, held at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, Glasgow.

One of the ways that the Trust continues to honour Steven’s life and work is through activities and workshops for schools. This year, artist Sandy Grant led an intensive two-day life-painting workshop at the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum for pupils from 8 schools, including Hillhead High, Holyrood Secondary, St Paul’s High, Rosshall Academy, Springburn Academy, St Mungo’s Academy, St Thomas Aquinas Secondary, and Hyndland Academy.

There was an enormous amount of dedication, energy and talent on display during this year’s workshop, and the attendees were all a credit to their schools.

We would like to give a massive thank you to for generously supplying us with a wealth of art materials for use during this event. For charitable organisations like the Steven Campbell Trust, such support makes a huge difference, allowing educational events like this to run. We look forward to a long and fruitful partnership with Cass Art in the future.

Our thanks also to the staff for their support, and for providing us with a wonderful creative environment in which to hold the class.
