Together the Royal Borough of Greenwich, Lewisham Education Arts Network
(LEAN) and Greenwich Dance are creating an Arts Award Network. This initiative aims
to support schools, arts organisations, artists, arts award supporters and
centres and all those interested in helping children and young people develop
as artists and arts leaders through Arts Awards. This network is supported by A
New Direction, London’s leader in cultural education, and will focus on the
boroughs of Greenwich and Lewisham.

The Arts Award Network is likely to provide: Arts Award advisor training; meetings featuring case studies and
success stories from a wide range of organisations from all over the capital;
and opportunities for partnerships to form, all with the aim of improving the
Arts Awards offer for young people in South East London.

We are creating a network that is right for the arts learning sector
in Lewisham and Greenwich and will be responsive to your needs and views.
