LCA 1 Visual Art students entered their sheep sculptures into The Roscommon Schools Sculpture Competition.This is a very exciting event that takes place throughout the Summer in Strokestown Park, schools from all over County Roscommon have been invited to take part, by creating a piece of sculpture that reflects or is inspired by Strokestown Park. Be it the architecture or collections within the House, or the tragic story of The Irish National Famine Museum or the tranquillity of the walled Gardens & Estate that is up to the Students. Each piece of sculpture is placed along the Woodland walk. All visitors to the woodlands can vote for their favourite piece, with kind sponsorship from Investec Bank, the winning school will receive €3500.
The LCA sculpture pieces, entitled 'Feeling Sheepish' are on display at the start of the Woodland Walk
So if you are visiting Strokestown park during the summer months, don't forget to vote!

Students created the sheep using fencing wire, covered with hundreds of pom poms made from recycled plastic bags, plaster of paris, paint and varnish. Well done to all the students involved for their hard work.
