Oxford Contemporary Music has been delivering Arts Award projects for the last few years and we are pleased to be able to extend our delivery to include an Arts Award supporter offer to young people, schools and youth groups in Oxfordshire wishing to access the Arts Award. We are offering support at all levels of Arts Award, covering certain parts that make up that particular award.
Below is a summery of what our supporter offer includes:

We can give talks about our arts organisation and we can arrange for some artists to give talks about themselves and their work to groups of young people.
