Creative talent
to spot and watch:
For a
chance to enjoy and even buy fantastic new art
by St Edward’s A-Level artists, make sure you
visit Emerging Talent 2010 at the North Wall
Arts Centre.
Very few schools mount
professional exhibitions of final-year art work
in this way, and St Edward’s is proud to be
showcasing our incredibly talented young artists
in an exhibition open to the general public.
The pupils are exhibiting and selling their
art partly to learn what’s involved in mounting
and promoting an exhibition, but also to raise
funds for gap year projects, university and
charities.
The exhibition is open on
Sunday 11th July, 2 – 4pm, and from Monday 12th
– Friday 16th July, 11am - 4pm.

performance of Tippett’s ‘A
Child of our Time’

forward to their next performance on Sunday 17th
October.
Plans are being made for an
‘Elgar
Weekend’ on
the 16th and 17th October with a lecture from
leading Elgar authority Anthony Payne and a
showing of Ken Russell’s 1962 film ‘Elgar’
as well as performances of Elgar’s music. The St
Edward’s Singers will be performing
Elgar’s ‘The
Spirit of England’
on the
Sunday evening as part of the festival.
Rehearsals begin on Friday
10th September 7.30 - 9.00 in the School Hall.
