Volunteers

Young at Art has successfully run a Volunteers Programme in conjunction with their annual Belfast Children's Festival since 1998 and extended it to include young volunteers in 2007. In 2008 the festival became the first Northern Ireland-based arts organisation to be awarded an accreditation from "Investing in Volunteers", the UK quality standard for all organisations involving volunteers.
