Sculptures at the Olympic Park

Yesterday, Art at the Edge took a selection of sculptures from the bronze collection to the Olympic Park to be exhibited at Sainsbury’s School Games 2012.  Backed by National Lottery funding from Sport England and delivered by the Youth Sport Trust, the Sainsbury's 2012 School Games is a multi-sport event for 1,600 elite young athletes. The Games took place from 6-9 May 2012 with the Olympic Stadium, Velodrome and Aquatics Centre at the Olympic Park among London venues hosting competition.








In the evening all 1,600 athletes who had competed in the Sainsbury's 2012 School Games headed over to the Basketball Arena to enjoy a closing ceremony with performances from the Cover Drive and gymnastic troupe Spelbound.



The sculptures were very well received at the reception in the Olympic Family Lounge in the Olympic Basketball Arena.
