Bridgewater Arts for Schools Competition

Published on 27th April 2018

This year the school’s art competition at Bridgewater Shopping Centre is a little different. Instead of the usual paper and paint activities, local children have been given the opportunity to paint their very own “Moo Masterpiece” – a lifesize fiberglass calf!

Bridgewater have selected six local schools to avail of the opportunity to become involved with the Moo Masterpiece project:

Avoca National School
Carysfort National School
Gaelscoil an Inbhir Mhóir
Scoil Ghormáin Naofa, Castletown
St. John’s Senior National School
St. Joseph’s National School

A heard of plain white calves left Bridgewater to be delivered to the schools where pupils from 4^th to 6^th class had 2 weeks to create the most creative calf possible!

The Moo Masterpieces will be displayed on the mall for you to view and vote for your favourite from 4^th – 20^th May. Voting for your favourite Moo Masterpiece will take place on the mall and on the Bridgewater website: Bridgewatercentre.ie

The winning school will be awarded a prize of €250 to purchase art supplies for their school. Winners will be announced in the Wicklow People on 24^th May.
