Guernsey Arts is proud to present the annual Student Exhibition.
This show showcases the exceptional creative talent that is cultivated by our local education institutes - right here, on island. The featured artworks that you see on display have been selected and curated by the Guernsey Arts team. We have carefully selected works from across the Island that demonstrate creativity, high technical ability and individuality.
Within the show, you'll find thought-provoking artworks from final year students of Elizabeth College, the Ladies College, Les Varendes High School & Sixth Form Centre, The Guernsey Institute, and Blanchelande College.
We would like to thank all of the teaching staff for the ongoing support we receive in hosting this exhibition. We also thank this year's cohort of students for their drive and passion in pursuing their creative pathways. We see you and we celebrate your talents.
The exhibition will be open at the George Crossan Gallery in the Inner Market from Friday 6 September until Friday 27 September, 10:00 - 16:00. Free admission.
