This celebration of the Barreau Art Scholarship reveals its philanthropic beginnings and dips into the wealth of talent it has recognised and supported over its 100 years of awards, administered by the Société Jersiaise.
This Scholarship fund dates back to 1924 when Miss A E Barreau provided the funds to establish and endow an Art Gallery at the Société Jersiaise Museum (the Barreau Le Maistre Gallery at Jersey Museum) and also an Art Scholarship for the benefit of Jersey students.
Find out more about this fascinating local story and how the Barreau Art Scholars have gone on to make an impact in Jersey and beyond our shores.
With 139 Barreau Scholars identified and contact made with 92, it is proving to be an insight into 100 years of individuality and impact.
Enjoy a feast of diverse works of art and savour the taste of how support and encouragement create ripples through lives and communities.
