One of our very talented Year 12 students at St Simon Stock Secondary in Maidstone, Joe B, has been successfully chosen for the Young Artists’ Summer Show exhibition, open to students aged 4–19 studying in the UK, by The Royal Academy of Arts.

The Royal Academy of Arts is a world-renowned art institution based in Piccadilly, London. A 250-year-old art gallery and art school, The Royal Academy of Arts hosts major exhibitions by historic and living artists, including one of the biggest shows in the London social calendar: the annual summer exhibition.

The Royal Academy of Arts received over 21,500 submissions for its summer exhibition, so this is a remarkable achievement for Joe, a huge well done!
