Yorkshire Sculpture Park (YSP) is delighted to announce that the National Arts Education Archive (NAEA) at YSP has been awarded full Archive Service Accreditation. 

The award shows that the NAEA meets the UK quality standard for the management and care of its unique collections and for providing access to anyone interested in arts education.   

In 2018, the NAEA became one of the only archives run almost entirely by volunteers to achieve provisional Accreditation. The Committee gave the award on the condition that the NAEA address a few outstanding issues. After lots of hard work and the submission of a revised application in March, the provisional award was upgraded to full Accreditation ‘in recognition of all the successful development work on the archives in recent years.’
