Engage (National Association for Gallery Education) and the Marsh Charitable Trust are delighted to celebrate the Marsh Awards for Excellence in Visual Arts Engagement 2024 at Kettle’s Yard.

The awards recognise and celebrate the achievements of those working in learning, participation, and engagement within visual arts contexts (freelance, salaried or as volunteers) in the UK and internationally.

To mark the end of Engage’s Let’s Create Art 2025 campaign, Engage is partnering with Kettle’s Yard to host a Panel Discussion and the 2024 March Awards Ceremony, in the surroundings of the Paint What Matters! exhibition.

Join us for the awards ceremony.

Join us for a panel discussion on young people and art today for our current exhibition Paint What Matters!  

Paint What Matters! celebrates the creativity and voices of young artists (aged 4 – 21) in Cambridge who have shared what matters to them. They are the artists of the future and we want to support and encourage their development going forward.

However, there are challenges in moving this into action.

Join Jane Sillis, Director of Engage (National Association for Gallery Education), as she invites a panel of Cambridge experts to share and discuss positive ways forward for young artists aged 4 – 21 years.

Kettle’s Yard is proud to partner with Engage as the panel discussion also marks the close of Let’s Create Art 2025. Let’s Create Art is a sector-led initiative developed by Engage and designed to provide children and young people across the UK with high quality art engagement encounters and opportunities.

Join Common Threads Press for a panel discussion on craft as a source of hope and survival. This panel will approach craft from the perspective of three of its authors who work with a diverse range of craft histories, chaired by Laura Moseley, Common Threads Press founder and Assistant Curator of the Women’s Art Collection.

Speakers include Gill Crawshaw (Rights Not Charity: Protest Textiles and Disability Activism, 2023) and Rachel Dedman (Stitching the Intifada: Embroidery and Resistance in Palestine, 2024).

Join us for a performance and in-conversation by Anne Tallentire marking the culmination of her commission for Here is a Gale Warning: art, crisis and survival. There will be an opportunity to explore the exhibition prior to the event.
