Celebrating youth creativity
More than just a competition, the YAP is a vibrant celebration of youth, connection, and the transformative power of art, while honouring the diversity of artistic voices and the narratives that can be told through creative expression.

Whether you're an aspiring artist or a seasoned creator, now is your moment to let your creativity speak and be part of a movement that highlights the importance of youth in shaping the future of art and culture.
