Hayden was an exceptional student whose talent and dedication were evident from the start. Their creativity and passion for art shone brightly throughout their time at Longley, leading to many impressive works. One particular piece, now on display at Weston Park Museum, stood out for its depth and beauty, capturing the essence of Caribbean culture in a unique and powerful way.

Higher Education and Further Success

After leaving Longley, Hayden continued to pursue their passion for art at one of the most prestigious institutions in the world – Goldsmiths, University of London.
