Young at Art

From its base in Belfast's city centre, Young at Art coordinates not only an international festival but also a wide variety of projects that encourage children and young people under 18 to enjoy the arts, develop awareness of its impact on their lives, and have a say in what their arts provision should be.

Events take place both in and out of school time for schools, groups and families to attend. These include workshop programmes, commissions, regional touring, seminars, training, research, publications and the development of on-line resources.

In 2006 to ‘07, over 14,000 children, young people and their adults experienced a Young at Art activity.

Over 180 events in Northern Ireland and Belfast involved over 120 artists, 3 fulltime and nearly 20 freelance staff, and more than 20 volunteers. Whether you are a young person, parent, artist, teacher, youth worker or interested member of the public, Young at Art has opportunities for you to get involved. Visit the website for more details.
