This year marks 20 years of Artsmark which is the only creative quality standard for schools and education settings, accredited by Arts Council England.

ALan Campbell, MP for Tynemouth said “It is vital that we ensure all young people can be creative and access a diverse, high-quality cultural education.

I am wishing all the schools celebrating Artsmark Award’s Day to Create in Tynemouth the most creative and fun time this week.”
