Welcome to Arts Award on Voice

Welcome to Arts Award on Voice, a dedicated area of Voice magazine that offers inspiration, ideas and resources to help you achieve your Arts Award. 

If you’re into film, then you might want to check out our Voice Winter Film Festival. It’s our fourth annual festival, running from 6th January 2025 to 6th April 2025, with a variety of new films created by young filmmakers. Check out the first one we featured below – Peckham – created by the young people of Rainbow Collection Animation Club. 

Perhaps you’ve created your own film as part of your Silver Arts Challenge or Extended your own Arts Practice for Gold. You can upload films or audio recordings and use Voice to create your own Arts Award portfolio, helping to share your work easily with your adviser, documenting progress whilst keeping everything clearly evidenced and central to your profile. You can post arts reviews, write blogs, research artists and get creative ideas from what other people are doing for their awards.

We also have lots of advice and guidance on Arts Award on Voice, check out all our helpful guides here. They include a wide variety of artforms and cultural sectors such as guides on how to engage your workshop audience, how to get involved in the creative industries and how to get into the film industry. Take a look to help you on your journey.

If you want to dive further into the world of arts and culture, take a look at Voice magazine. Voice runs interviews with creative professionals, reviews art in all of its forms, and hosts insightful and delightful blog posts about the creative sector – and all that's right and wrong with it! If you're looking to take your Arts Award to the next level, Voice is a great place to find new ideas.
