Nearly three million students from across Europe have benefited from a study period or work placement abroad since the creation of the Erasmus programme in 1987.

Wales has a thriving creative industry and the Wales International Young Artist Award will not only identify a new pool of young talent across the creative sectors, but also nurture it further by offering young artists from Wales, national and international exposure.

Working with partners and sponsors in Wales and overseas, we seek to promote the most innovative and creative output from Wales to the rest of the world and support opportunities for international collaboration.
