βοΈ Arts Award Success βοΈ
Six Shahck Out Youth Dance members successfully completed their Silver Arts Award at RJC Dance, a recognised national Level 2 accreditation awarded by @trinitycollegelondon.
Over 4 months in the summer term, these dedicated young dancers immersed themselves in the world of dance, creativity and leadership, alongside and during their regular sessions. They visited the theatre and reflected on their experience, interviewed an exhibition curator at the University of Leeds and created their very own `RJC Dance` magazine.
A huge well done to them for their hard work, creativity and dedication βοΈ
Silver Arts Award is a nationally recognised qualification that celebrates young peopleβs creative development, equivalent to a GCSE level. It gives participants the opportunity to explore an art form, develop their skills, and share their creativity with others through weekly sessions, artist research, performance insight and and leadership.β¨
Trinity College London manages Arts Award in association with @aceagrams.
