Whether you work in museums, theatres, galleries or youth settings, we have lots of resources to support your digital Arts Award delivery. If you are looking to evidence young people’s Arts Award journeys digitally, check out our list of online platforms that can be used for portfolios.
Or try our digital arts guidance and factsheet which is designed to support advisers when working with young people using digital arts and technology as part of Arts Award. This explores digital practices such as vlogging, Augmented Reality (AR), gaming and coding.
Both of these resources can be found on our adviser hub.
Throughout November, Arts Award Voice takes a look at museums and heritage venues, showing the rich and creative role they play in our culture and the different jobs they offer.
Sienna – intrepid reporter and Arts Award Gold achiever – will be checking out how museums are running Arts Award and asking young people what they think museums should offer.
Find out more at Museums and Heritage on Voice.
