The first event took place in 1993, and the event now attracts a mix of some of the UK and Buckinghamshire’s best artists as well as contributions from the school’s A’ level and GCSE students.

This year Charles Elliott will appear at the exhibit, straight from his Elliott of London Buckinghamshire studios. With Elliott of London sculptures shown at prestigious British locations like the Royal Chelsea Hospital and the Ashridge Estate, organisers say they are thrilled that Charles has added Aylesbury Grammar School to the list.
