This year’s creativity awards for young people have been launched.
Epping Forest District Council is giving those aged 13 to 25 the opportunity to receive funding to help improve a talent or an interest in the arts.
This year’s winners will be awarded grants between £50 to £1,500 to support and develop artistic and creative talent.
Applicants are required to demonstrate their commitment to their area of interest and explain how the award will help them develop their talent.
They must also be able to demonstrate that they are actively pursuing their area of interest – this can be through volunteering, education, exhibition, performance or other routes.
The awards are open to individuals and groups, with a minimum of 3 people, who are looking for support for their creative activity.
The deadline for applications is midnight on January 4.
You can apply for the award, here.
