Art in the Park at Howbery Park
Our art competition and exhibition has been held the past two years covering two different themes; ‘Water in our world’ (2024) and ‘Wellbeing in nature’ (2025). It has been inspiring to see the artwork submitted by local artists from both the junior and over-18 age categories where artists were invited to submit 2D artworks of their interpretation of the theme.
Prizes were awarded for the best artwork in the two age categories. First prize in the over-18s category was £500 with two highly commended entries receiving a £250 prize each. In the junior category (aged under-18), a £50 voucher was awarded to the winners and £250 also awarded to the nominated school or youth group of the winning artists to be used for art supplies.
The competition will be running again in 2026 with a new theme to be announced soon.
You can see the winning artwork from the 2024 competition on the theme of ‘water in our world’ at https://howberypark.com/art/past-winners-2024/.
