Sponsors and judges
UKCPS very much appreciates the support it has received from:
- this year's three excellent jurors who selected the works to be exhibited in the show - Janie Gildow, Hannelore Warning and Neil Murison
- Faber Castell, the sponsors of this year's exhibition and the Best in Show Award. Faber Castell are of course the manufacturers of Polychromos artists´ colour pencils and Albrecht Durer artists´ watercolour pencils.
Later today, the UKCPS website will have a new page displaying all the works in the exhibition. I'll provide a link in this post once the new page has been published.
If you want to visit the exhibition you can find it for the next three weeks in the New Gallery of the Royal West of England Academy, Queens Road, Clifton, Bristol BS8 1PX. It's open until Tuesday 28th October. Opening hours on Monday to Saturday are from 10.00am - 5.30pm and on Sunday it's open in the afternoon from 2.00-5.00pm. Last admission is half an hour before closing.
