Cheshire West Community and Voluntary Arts Awards 2022

Cheshire West and Chester Council is supporting Cheshire West Voluntary Arts Network to recognise individuals or organisations making a difference to their community through the arts.

The event couldn’t be run in 2020 and last year all those nominated who enabled local communities to participate in the arts during the pandemic were honoured.

Councillor Louise Gittins, Leader of Cheshire West and Chester Council said “At last we can return to the original format, and in their seventh year we welcome back a free awards evening in September in the newly refurbished Whitby Hall, Ellesmere Port.

“Now is the time to nominate your projects, organisations and volunteers and celebrate their achievements with us.”

If you are a group, or know of a group or individual then nominations are now open for the following categories: 

• Children & Youth Arts
• Performing Arts
• Visual Arts
• Music
• Outstanding Contribution (a special award to a group or individual)
• Unsung Hero (that person who is always working away in the background, continuously supporting a group / project)

To nominate an organisation, or individual complete an application form and send it to: 

artswest@cheshirewestandchester.gov.uk

The deadline for applications is 5pm, Monday 15 August 2022.

Cheshire West Voluntary Arts Network supports and promotes voluntary arts groups across Cheshire West and Chester.
