More than 50 award-winning GCSE and A level art students from East Sussex secondary schools and colleges gathered at Farleys House and Gallery, Chiddingly last month (October 18) to find out the winners of the Farley Arts Trust Awards.

Judges said that choosing the 16 winners was ‘even more difficult than usual’ this year, with the standard being ‘outstanding’.

Prizes were donated by national and local sponsors and were presented by Sir Peter Blake, a pop artist best known for co-creating the sleeve design for the Beatles’ album Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band and the artwork for two of The Who’s albums.
