Everyone welcome! # Year 6 - Darwen Art Exhibition ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_4214.jpeg) 4 September 2026 Year 6 had the exciting opportunity to visit an art exhibition in Darwen Town Centre, where they were able to explore and appreciate a wide variety of artwork created by local artists. The children spent time carefully observing the different pieces, discussing what they could see and sharing their thoughts, ideas and interpretations. Inspired by the artwork they encountered, the children then became artists themselves! They used free-flowing creativity to produce their own unique pieces, experimenting with negative space, shapes, lines and patterns. It was fantastic to see the children express themselves creatively and confidently while developing their understanding of how artists can use space and composition to create an impact.![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_4214.jpeg) [Year 6](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-6) [Art and Design](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/art-and-design) [Visits and Visitors](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/visits-and-visitors) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_4708.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-03-year-5-pshe) Previous ### [Year 5 - PSHE](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-03-year-5-pshe) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_4250(2).jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-04-year-6-behind-the-scenes) Next ### [Year 6 - Behind the Scenes ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-04-year-6-behind-the-scenes) ### Personal Development - [News](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/events) - [Photo Gallery](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/photo-gallery-category/our-gallery) - [Calendar](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/calendar) - [School Council](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/school-council) - [Attendance](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/attendance) - [Fundraising](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/fundraising) - [Extra Curricular Clubs](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/clubs) - [Little Leaders](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/little-leaders) - [Visits and Visitors](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/visits-and-visitors) - [British Values](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/british-values) - [Protected Characteristics](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/protected-characteristics) ##### Location Knowlesly Road Darwen Lancashire BB3 2JA ##### Contact Us 01254 702996 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/stbarnabasce/) - [X](https://twitter.com/stbarnabasce) © Copyright 2021–2026 St Barnabas Primary School, A Church of England Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
