Students join forces in 'Art for Good' sale

Newcastle-under-Lyme

College (NULC) students studying BTEC Level 3 Business have joined forces with

a selection of the college's promising art students to put their work on public

sale.

 

Students have

been split into several teams and each team will be representing one

artist.  The artists have given their

team an inspiring talk about their art work and some insight into the time and

effort that goes into each individual piece. 

 

Each team

will compete against each other in selling the art work to raise as much money

as possible for the Breast Cancer Campaign Charity. 

 

The 'Art for

Good' sale will take place at the Roebuck Centre on Monday 25 March,

Tuesday 26 March and Wednesday 27 March between 10am and 2pm.  Each piece of art work is individual and

prices start from just £5. 

 

Commenting on

the artist's work, Deborah Hilditch, Curriculum Manager Art and Creative

Studies, said: "The sale celebrates the breadth and wealth of art and design

undertaken by students on a variety of creative courses at the College."

 

She

continued: "Art work is individual to each artist and has been produced as part

of a variety of Level 2 and Level 3 courses. 

The work explores a wide range of themes and incorporates a variety of

materials and processes."

 

Becky

Sargeant, Curriculum Leader of Business said: "This is a fantastic opportunity

for art and business students to work together to support each other and raise

money for a fantastic cause."

 

Anyone interested in purchasing a

piece of artwork should visit the Roebuck Centre on Monday 25 March – Wednesday

27 March between 10am and 2pm.

 

NULC offers a wide range of creative

and business courses at various levels.
