About the ART Award
Welcome to the ART Award – a vibrant and inspiring initiative designed to celebrate creativity in schools, community groups, and youth organisations across the UK. Our award is open to young people under 25, encouraging them to explore their artistic passions and develop their talents in a fun, accessible, and supportive environment.
What is the ART Award?
The ART Award is a creative challenge that recognises and rewards artistic flair across a wide range of disciplines. Whether you're into fashion design, photography, creative writing, or just love to get stuck into anything imaginative – this award is for you!
We offer two levels of achievement:
Bronze Award – A great starting point to build confidence and try something new.
Silver Award – A step up, encouraging deeper exploration and creative development.
Each level is designed to be flexible, making it easy for schools, businesses, and community groups to run in a way that suits their timetable and participants.

The award is open to:
Schools – Primary, secondary, or sixth form
Youth groups – Scouts, youth clubs, after-school programmes
Community organisations – Local arts groups, charities, libraries
