Pictures have been placed in windows of empty premises creating colourful displays of artwork and drawings, created by the pupils of St Anne’s Schools.

Ilona Soane-Sands said it adds a “sparkle and entertainment to what were previously rather sad looking empty premises”.
She said: “Now walking up and down Victoria Street has turned into a pleasant talent spotting discovery tour for shoppers, residents and visitors and the displays have already created much interest and applause.
“The pictures will remain there for a month or two and may subsequently be replaced with new pieces of artwork by older students or possibly the Alderney Art Club – unless of course the premises have found new owners to accommodate a new business venture.”
The Chamber would like to thank St. Anne’s School’s pupils and the owners of the properties for allowing the transformation of Victoria Street into a happy street and they hope that owners of a few more empty premises will also allow them to enhance their shop window with a little bit of art.
