Age 5-9
Arts Award Discover
Arts Award Discover is the introductory level for Arts Award aimed at young people aged 5 to 9, but open to anyone between the ages of 5 and 25. In this award, participants take part in arts activities and identify different types of art, find out about an artist or craftsperson and share what they have learned and experienced.
Self-Led Arts Award Discover
Skipton Town Hall offers an Arts Award Discover which individuals can complete while exploring Craven Museum! Visit us any time the museum is open, purchase a booklet and borrow an Arts Award Discover bag to complete the award. (The current cost is £5.50, but this is subject to change based on Trinity College London certificate costs.) We recommend at least an hour to finish the full booklet.
Please note, young children will require adult supervision and support whilst taking part.
Successful participants will receive a certificate from Trinity College London through the post.
