Artistic excellence at local school

Gracehill Primary School took delivery of an Irish masterpiece last week as part of a BBC arts initiative to bring works by prominent Irish artists into local classrooms.

It is hoped that enabling pupils to get a ‘close up view’ of such works will help inspire their own artistic potential.
