A robust network
YoungArts award winners join a community of distinguished artists that provides a long–term, robust network to help artists at all stages of their education and career.
Nomination for U.S. Presidential Scholar in the Arts
Each year, the White House Commission on Presidential Scholars selects 20 YoungArts award winners at the Finalist level as U.S. Presidential Scholars in the Arts, one of the nation’s highest honors for high school students who exemplify academic and artistic excellence.
National recognition
The prestigious award gives emerging artists a headstart by demonstrating that they have received national recognition from highly respected artists in their field early on in their artistic journey.
