Young artists who featured in the annual school art exhibition at the Bermuda Society of Arts were honoured with People’s Choice Awards.
Visitors who attended the exhibition, which featured art from the island’s primary, middle and senior school students, were asked to vote on their favorite piece.
Earlier this week Leah Scott, the Junior Minister for Education, formally presented the winning students with certificates, a year’s membership to the BSoA, sketch books and art supplies.
