We are a registered Arts Award centre and can offer TYC members the chance to participate in Arts Award’s unique qualifications that support children and young people to develop as artists and arts leaders.

The programme develops skills for success in 21st century life including creativity, leadership, reflective thinking and communication skills. Young people also develop knowledge and understanding of their chosen art forms.

Through Arts Award young people learn to work independently, helping them to prepare for further education and employment
