During lockdown, we invited primary schools who usually visit the Museum for workshops, to take part in an art competition to draw and/or colour a picture of one of our engines.
We were really encouraged to receive entries from Denver V.C. Primary School pupils (aged 6) and thank them for their interest.
A local artist judged the entries, and images of the entries from the prize winners are shown. It was a hard job to choose the winners and all the children were congratulated and received a Museum pen. All the pictures will be on display at the Museum when we open again, hopefully in April 2021.

If any individual primary aged children would like to send in a drawing to display at the Museum's exhibition, please draw and colour one of our engines featured on the website, and send to the Museum no later than the end of February 2021. There will be a prize of an art set for the best of these pictures, judged by the local artist. Please include the name, age, and contact details on the back of the entry, along with an adult’s signature confirming it is the child’s own, unaided work.
