\"\"<\/a>Inspired by Athletes’ Village Accommodation Manager, Caroline rogers, Game On Scotland launched the Athletes’ Village Art Competition.\u00a0 Never in our wildest dreams did we expect the range and quality of entries from schools across Scotland.<\/p>\n

We asked schools to hold their own internal Art Competitions and send use their 10 winning entries. We could not have imagined that this would result in our post bag overflowing with fantastic pieces of work from youngsters across the country. In fact, we received an eye watering 9,000 pieces or art work! We are absolutely overjoyed at the range of pieces, depicting many different Commonwealth sports and Glasgow landmarks. Not only that, the attention to detail and innovative way talented youngsters across the country have employed in their work ensures without doubt that the Village will be a vibrant and uplifting place for athletes and officials heading to Glasgow in just a few short weeks.<\/p>\n

It was a very exciting day earlier this week when talented artists from St Bernadette\u2019s Primary and Rutherglen High joined the Game On Scotland Team to formally hand over the art work to Caroline and her team who now have the task of displaying it throughout the Athletes\u2019 Village. For a peek behind the closed doors of the Athletes\u2019 Village you can watch Caroline\u2019s brief film here<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n

During the games athletes will be encouraged to respond to schools through email\/postcard. Also, keep your eyes peeled for tweets as we are expecting athletic selfies with art work to appear #VillageArt<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
