We believe that investing in our youth is investing in the future of Guernsey.
Our innovative art-lending and Cultural Enrichment programmes take place within schools. We provide a resource for home educators as well as running after-school and holiday clubs throughout the year. The AFG Academy is a first-class resource for those preparing for art schools or a career in the creative sector, and we provide an annual scholarship for finalists in the Sovereign Art Foundation Student Prize competition.

INNOVATIVE ART LENDING PROGRAMME
Art in School, our innovative art-lending programme, makes available artworks of museum quality to any Guernsey school willing to develop project-based learning opportunities and use the artworks in a multidisciplinary context (creative writing, geography, science, maths, history, technology and so on).
The programme has been incredibly successful: to date 18 Guernsey schools have engaged with the initiative.
