Anzac Project

PROJECT

Fostering creative and artistic excellence in the youth of Northern Rivers


The ANZAC project involves the commissioning of six creative projects from young people aged 14-22 years.

The aim of the project is to engage young people in the Northern Rivers with the memory of war and the ANZAC legacy.

This project is supported by a grant from the Australian Government’s Anzac Centenary Arts and Culture Fund and the venue provided by Southern Cross University.
