    Oscar & BAFTA Award-winning Films 2021

    26 Apr 2021

    The glitz, the glamour, the excitement…the Oscar and BAFTA 2021 winners have been announced!

    It’s been a difficult and challenging year for cinemas but some incredible films have been released and we are excited to be bringing them to the big screen. Frances McDormand touched us all with her heartfelt plea to pilgrimage back to cinemas to see her new film Nomadland and the brilliant movies that were winners and nominees at the Oscars 2021.

    “Please watch our movie on the largest screen possible, and one day very, very soon, take everyone you know into a theatre, shoulder to shoulder in that dark space and watch every film that’s represented here tonight.” Frances McDormand #Oscars2021

    ART31

    ART31 takes its name from Article 31 of the UN Convention on the Rights of a Child, which states that ‘Children have the right to relax and play, and to join in a wide range of cultural, artistic and other recreational activities’.

    ART31 is a vision created with, by, and for young people in Kent, championing the belief that all children and young people have an entitlement to access high quality arts and culture, to empower them to achieve their creative potential, and to genuinely engage young people as equal partners in any decision making that affects them.

    The ART31 Youth Board is made up of young people from across Kent aged 13-25 who steer its governance, and influence policy and practice across the county and beyond, challenging the creative sector to examine existing ways of working and integrate young people into the core of their practice.
