Monday 7th March 2011 saw the inaugural exhibition of the UK's entries to The International Children’s Exhibition of Fine Arts Lidice. It took place at the spiritual home of the "Lidice Shall Live" campaign: The Victoria Hall, Hanley, Stoke-on-Trent.
The event, organised by Theartbay Gallery, was attended by The Lord Mayor of Stoke-on-Trent, the sponsors - Skoda and the leaders of the campaign to restore links between Stoke-on-Trent and Lidice, Alan and Cheryl Gerrard.
Approximately 400 pieces of high quality artwork were received, marking a fitting tribute to the work of Sir Barnett Stross and the "Lidice Shall Live" campaign.
There were 10 overall winners - 8 from mainstream schools and 2 from special schools and 28 merit award prizes. Also given out was a prize to the school which entered the highest quality work - Ball Green Primary School received a print of the "Lidice Rose".
The photographs show the Lord Mayor of Stoke-on-Trent and Cheryl Gerrard giving the prizes; the representative from Skoda, David Peacock; and group shots of the prizewinners.
