YOUNG ARTS

The Horswell Cup was originally donated to the society by Mrs Prunella Dart - a former Chairman of the society, and her husband, Mr Michael Dart. They have been members since the earliest days of the society. The Cup was  awarded to that member winning an annual competition for entries in either photography, drawing, painting, sculpture, ceramics or needlework.

With the full agreement of Prunella and Michael, the Cup is now to be awarded as shown below. This is in lieu of the annual competition for KEDFAS members which has now been discontinued.

Following discussions with staff members of Kingsbridge Community College, the KEDFAS Committee has decided to award the Horswell Cup to the pupil showing the most improvement in music, art or creative writing during the previous school year. The winner will be adjudged by staff members of the College at the end of the Michaelmas term. The committee has also decided to give a monetary award  to the most outstanding pupil in each of the three disciplines - music, art and creative writing.

There is urgent need for the appointment of a Young Arts South West Area Representative who can liaise with those SW Societies that have Young Arts Representatives, collecting and collating details of programmes of activities involving arts and the young and passing such details to NADFAS.
