Nearly 60 people braved Saturday’s snow to find out the results of a community art competition.

Families descended on St. Augustine of Canterbury Church where the High Sheriff of Cumbria, David Beeby, was handing out the prizes for the Autumn on Alston Moor art competition.

Children as young as two and up to 13 were among 129 who submitted pictures for the week-long competition. Eleven adults also exhibited work – some for the first time ever.

The competition and open exhibition were organised by the Alston Landscape Art Town Initiative (ALATI). During the exhibition, people were encouraged to vote for the best picture.

Ten prizes were awarded and staff at the Alston Moor Federation Schools and Alston Preschool Group were praised for their hard work in a speech by Kathy Reeds, Chair of ALATI at the event.

“This is a celebration of our wonderful landscape by the children and adults of Alston Moor who see it every day,” she said.

“The quality was very high and we cannot thank them enough. One delighted prizewinner said she had spent four hours on her picture and was pleased with the result.”

The competition and open exhibition started on November 27, at St. Augustine’s Church, Alston, and ended a week later, on December 4.
