About
This popular exhibition showcases the inspired art work of pupils attending Tullygrawley Public Elementary School, Cullybackey under the direction of their Headmaster RL Russell.The pupils responded to the natural world and agricultural year which they were familiar with. Russell's work attracted considerable interest at the time. In 1935 he published his book, The Child and His Pencil, and in 1936 his services to education were recognised by Queen's University Belfast when they conferred on him an honorary Master of Arts degree.
