Arts Award Supporter

Creative Folkestone is an Arts Award supporter. We offer activities for children and young people who are working towards their Arts Award.

Arts Award is a nationally recognised qualification for children and young people aged 7 – 25 years old. Discover and Explore Arts Awards are specifically designed for primary school children. Arts Award can be delivered in a number of different ways: as part of the curriculum, as part of a lunchtime club or after school club or as part of a special arts week at your school.
