The British Art Medal Society

At the British Art Medal Society Prize Giving in April Upper Warden, Nick Butterworth, presented the Grand First Prize to the winner, Tina Avery, from Glasgow School of Art.   In presenting the prize Nick drew attention to the connection between the Founders’ Company and this casting Project.  Tina was really quite overwhelmed by the presentation.  The Company will obtain a copy of the medal for its Collection.  While the Project began in a small way, it now produces unmeasurable benefits for the students in terms of casting skills.  The Prize puts the Project into a category where participating Colleges can see a double value: terrific skills learned, but also a big reward to aim for.
