Result of Artist made Recycled Tree competition

January 8, 2010

Maiuko won £100 prize for the favourite tree.

Mrs A Williams won 2 vouchers to a show at the Quarterhouse.

I would like to thank Cheryl Papasian for all her help and all the artists who took part for making it such a great success.   The diverse selection of recycled trees was inspiring to all those who saw them.  Thank you Lucy Gradidge  for your support.   Also thanks must go to  the Creative Foundation for providing the prizes and venue that made it all possible.
