Celebrating Creativity: Mackenzie Thorpe Presents Local Student Art Award

At Crystal Galleries, we believe that recognition is one of the most powerful ways to inspire the next generation. This month, we had the distinct honour of being part of a very special event—a local students' art exhibition that celebrated the incredible talent emerging right here in our community.



The highlight of the event? The awards were presented by none other than the world-renowned artist and Middlesbrough’s own, Mackenzie Thorpe.


Known for his evocative work, Mackenzie Thorpe is a symbol of how far creativity can take you. Seeing him hand out the prizes to these aspiring young artists was a proud moment for everyone involved.


Mackenzie’s presence added an extra layer of magic to the ceremony, proving that with enough passion and "graft," Teesside talent can truly conquer the world.



As a family-run business with deep roots in the North East, these are the projects that mean the most to us. Whether we are producing thousands of items for international distributors or a single, significant award for a local school, the goal remains the same: to make excellence feel permanent.


We want to extend a massive congratulations to the winners of the exhibition. Seeing your work recognised by a master like Mackenzie Thorpe is an achievement you’ll never forget, and we are delighted that a Crystal Galleries award will be sitting on your mantlepiece to commemorate it.
