Get Gold with a difference
Gold is about preparing you for the creative industries - in a way A levels don't often do (in my opinion). Keeping a broad cultural experience is exciting.

Get Gold with your arts story
OK so I will give you a run down of my arts story, but the prevailing point I want to make is that everybody is unique. You will have your own experiences, your own opportunities, and can master your own arts story.

Get Gold by reaching out
Outreach programmes and 'making art accessible' are not about belittling it, relying on 'amateur' work, or squeezing it into strange places.

Get Gold with literature
Literature isn't always the first art form that comes to mind for many. But wow is that a mistake. I personally enjoy reading a good book - it's just finding the time. It can certainly be more fulfilling than watching the film equivalent.

Get Gold with hidden cities
Through December Arts Award Voice has been running a theme selected by the Ikon Youth Programme, hidden cities. When I was in conversations with them over 2 months ago (wow time has flown) there were all sorts of ideas for a theme, food art being one. But this post isn't about what could have been, it's about what is.

I've lived in cities for the last 6 years and a large town for about 5 years before that, so rural arts had become a thing of the past.

Get Gold on a budget
Well, here on Voice it's 'affordable art' month and I know that's handy after the Christmas splurge. For me it's not about the Boxing Day spend bonanza, or even the cost of presents. It's the cost of travel to see everyone and the meals out!
