This exhibition of colourful artworks from RWA's Permanent Collection has been curated by Work Experience students; Thomas, Evie, Kelly, AJ, Sophie and Riley-J, from 6 schools across Bristol. Here's what Riley-J had to say about their exhibition: 

My name is Riley-J, and I’m part of a team of young creative people working on the most colourful show in history this week! There are six of us on work experience. By the end of the week, we hope to gain our Bronze Arts Award and a letter of recommendation, which will help us find employment. We have been working together to come up with a theme for our exhibition. We wanted it to be chaotic, colourful, funny, and youthful. The work has been selected from the RWA permanent collection and will be hung in the Lower Ground Floor Corridor. Come check it out and let your imagination go wild!

Included in the exhibition are works from Patricia Ramsay RWA, Alexander Merrie Hardie, Michael Jenner and Glo Williams RWA among others.
