Westwood Foundation Art & Design: Scarborough's School of Art

30/06/2015

Hi Foundation - can you all come and collect your work today or tomorrow. Michael and Sarah have taken big things down and next week start rebuilding the studios. Well done on a terrific show and great year's work. Those of you who are moving on to new places good luck and keep in touch! Those of you who are staying with us... see you in September!

Hi Foundation - Victoria Dowe the examiner has just left and has agreed all the grades so tomorrow afternoon you can come down to Westwood to see me.
It's the Foundation taster day tomorrow - Ruby, Erin and Abbie are you still up for helping out in return for a free sketchbook? Offers open to anyone else you fancies helping?

Also, I could do with a couple of students to invigilate the show on Saturday morning (10-1) - a free sketchbook (A3!) to anyone who helps.
Thanks
Andy
