If you’re ready to try new experiences in the arts and media, doing a Bronze Arts Award is perfect for you – and you can achieve a Level 1 national qualification.

It’s all about seeing, trying, and doing new things in whatever part of the arts world inspires you. You’ll attend events, research your heroes, and share your passions with others.

Employers, universities and colleges know that Arts Award is a qualification that shows your level of commitment and progress in the arts, and in developing new skills.

You build a portfolio of your ideas and activities in your own personal style and format. You might make a folder or sketchbook, a video diary or website – it’s up to you. The Bronze Award will usually take you about 40 hours to complete.
