Let's talk about mental health
13 May 2019Here at Artis, we strongly believe that the arts inspire and motivate children’s creativity, allowing them to find their voice and open up their imagination. As well as giving them a space to explore challenging themes more openly outside of the formal learning environment, the arts help to build young people’s confidence, resilience and self-esteem.

Darren Henley Congratulates Artsmark Schools
11 October 2018As we launch the first Artsmark Celebration Week, Arts Council England's Chief Executive, Darren Henley, blogs about the important role arts and culture has on a young person's development, and has a special message of thanks for our Artsmark schools.
Our Chief Executive Darren Henley tells us why schools, education settings and cultural organisations across the country are taking time to appreciate the benefits of cultural education this week.
Over the summer we’ve been reflecting on all the great things we achieved last year and wanted to say a big THANK YOU to our Artsmark community for helping us get to where we are today
We are extremely proud to have Dame Reena Keeble, who has made a significant contribution to the education sector throughout her career, as a valued member of the Artsmark Assessment Panel.
