Mornington Peninsula Shire's Youth Advisory Committee (YAC) is calling on submissions for their Create It youth art showcase: a new exhibition run for and by young people.
The YAC members encourage young people to submit artworks across three diverse categories: art, audiovisual, and STEM.
Whether it's a painting, digital creation, sculpture, short film, or innovative STEM project, we want to see the full spectrum of creative expression from our talented young community.
Funded by the Victorian Governments Youth Fest 2025, Create It gives emerging young artists the chance to showcase their work beyond traditional art boundaries.
Artworks will be exhibited at The Corner youth hub from 22 – 26 September during the first week of school holidays.
Submissions are open until Friday 5 September, with prizes awarded across three age groups: 10-13, 14-17 and 18-25 years, plus a coveted 'People's Choice' award.
The exhibition will feature a day of workshops chosen by young people based on their interests, creating a truly collaborative learning environment.
The Youth Advisory Committee is a group of young leaders aged 12-25 who meet weekly at Tounnin Wominjeka Youth Hub in Rosebud. They organise events, provide feedback on Council issues and build their leadership skills.
