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. 

Below is a film showcasing how Arts Award can support young people’s confidence and develop their skills. Take a look at how Siyona’s confidence grew through completing her Gold Arts Award, helping her articulate her creative process and elevate her work. This newfound confidence and sophistication were invaluable when she appeared on CBBC’s Britain’s Best Young Artist, an experience she describes as surreal!
