Get Involved! Art Competitions

The Art Department at Three Rivers Academy are keen to promote the arts in all their forms. We have had success in many competitions over the last few years; getting involved really pays off. If you have a passion for an artist or a piece of artwork, there are three new ways to express this and give yourself a chance to succeed in a national competition. ‘The ARTiculation Prize’ is a public speaking competition, ‘Write on Art’ is a writing competition and ‘SPoKE’ is an art documentary competition. All three involve speaking, writing or making a film about art of your choice. There are hundreds of pounds to be won for winners and anyone getting involved will have an invaluable experience to add to their CV’s and personal statements.  Talk to your Art teacher if you are interested – we will support you all the way!
