It's all over!




Well, it's all over! The A4 Draw prize draw took place at the RK Burt gallery yesterday, where the lucky winners were picked at random. The winning ticket numbers have been listed next to the pieces below - congratulations if you won! We'll be getting the prizes in the post on Monday.

All of us students from South Essex College would like to say a couple of massive Thank Yous. Firstly to all our contributors, as without them The A4 Draw would not have been possible! We really appreciate your generosity, and we ended up with such a wonderful mix of pieces up for grabs.

Secondly we'd like to thank every one of you who bought a ticket. We've been so, so pleased with the reaction The A4 Draw received, and every ticket bought has helped us to raise some much-needed money to fund our graduate exhibitions this summer.

Thank you all for your support - it's been fun!

Last day!


Today is the last day to get your A4 Draw tickets, from the Folksy shop!

Tomorrow we will draw the names out of the hat to see which lucky people win the prizes (and there's over 25 pieces to be won, so you stand a good chance!).

If you fancy coming down to the RK Burt Gallery in London at 1pm tomorrow (Friday 12th March), you can see all the pieces up for grabs, and more importantly see who wins!

We'll update the blog with the winning ticket numbers, and put the prizes in the post ASAP.

Good luck, and thanks again for your support!

The exhibition



Today we've been setting up the gallery space for the exhibition which starts this Friday!

All pieces contributed to The A4 Draw are on display, along side work produced by us BA (Hons) Graphic Design students from South Essex College. It's going to be a great way to celebrate The A4 Draw project, which was set up to raise money to fund our graduate shows this summer.

On the final day of the exhibition (Friday 12th March) we will draw the A4 Draw winners at random and find out which lucky people have won the artworks! Tickets are on sale until then, from the Folksy shop, and at the gallery.
