Goldsmith Standards for Art and Design

 

Welcome to the Goldsmith Standards for Art and Design, an inclusive and accessible platform celebrating the creativity and artistic achievements of individuals from all walks of life. Our mission is rooted in the belief that art is for everyone, and we are committed to recognizing and awarding artistic growth through our Digital Badge Program.

Art for All

At Goldsmith Standards, we believe that everyone has the potential to be an artist. Whether you are just beginning your creative journey or honing your skills, we provide opportunities for you to learn, grow, and be celebrated for your progress. Our approach emphasizes foundational skills, encouraging artists to develop their unique voices through supportive and accessible resources.

The Aim of the Goldsmith Standards

The Goldsmith Standards aim to promote and uphold excellence in art and design education by establishing a framework for skill development that is inclusive, accessible, and inspiring for artists of all levels. Our goal is to:

1. Encourage Lifelong Learning: Provide a structured path for individuals to develop and refine their artistic abilities, from basic to advanced levels, while fostering a love for continuous learning in the arts.

2. Recognize and Celebrate Achievement: Use digital badges to acknowledge and celebrate the progress and accomplishments of artists, giving them a meaningful way to share and showcase their skills.

3. Promote Inclusivity and Accessibility: Ensure that art and design education is available to everyone, regardless of age, background, or experience, by offering supportive resources and a welcoming community.

4. Inspire Creativity and Innovation: Create opportunities for artists to explore their creativity, experiment with new techniques, and develop their unique artistic voice in a supportive and encouraging environment.

The Goldsmith Standards are dedicated to making art accessible and valued, while also providing artists with the recognition and encouragement they deserve as they grow in their artistic journeys.
