Young Artist Awards
The Young Artist Awards are awarded for excellence in television, movies and theatre by young performers. The awards are presented yearly by the Young Artist Foundation. Started in 1979 by long-standing Hollywood Foreign Press (Golden Globes) member Maureen Dragone, the awards were envisioned specifically as awards to be presented to talented young people in television and movies who might otherwise be overshadowed by their older co-stars. The secondary purpose of the awards is to garner attention to the foundation's scholarship fund for physically or financially challenged aspiring young artists, to allow them to pursue their dreams.Source
