Snowman disco hotspot in Corsham

Olivia Hunt with her prize-winning Christmas card design
Young artist Olivia Hunt, five, is full of festive cheer after her winning design for a Christmas card was put on sale in Corsham.
The Pound Arts Centre invited students from the town’s primary schools to design a card for it to sell.
Corsham artist Susie Brooks and the Pound’s Siwan Williams chose Olivia’s snowman disco and now 250 copies have been printed.
Olivia has also won a family ticket to a show.
Second prize was won by Charlie Heard, also five, of St Patrick’s Catholic Prim-ary School, while fellow St Patrick’s student Juliette Myers, ten, was third.
Olivia’s mother, Kirsty, said: “She’s always liked to sit down and do some drawing.”
Ms Brooks said: “Olivia’s piece worked on a lot of different levels. It was a fantastic drawing, it used lovely colours and it was such a happy scene.
“Also, the concept of a snowman disco was so appealing. It just had that extra something.”
The cards are also available at Corsham Book Shop and Goldfish Bowl Gallery.
