Overview

Recognising the potential of creative youth is very important to the future of Brisbane and what better time than National Youth Week to shine light on this much needed support. In a week where Brisbane has experienced the loss of arts support, it's time to appreciate and enjoy what creative opportunities remain.
Visible Ink is a Brisbane City Council program that offers free spaces, support, resources and opportunities for young people to be an active part of life in Brisbane city. Chances are if you're under 25 and have ever needed free printing, free internet or assistance with anything even remotely creative, then you would have visited the space. They also have a zine library and performance/band practice spaces and internet. Oh and did I mention all of this is free? Free is a word that don't hear often enough in the arts.
To add to the long list of things Visible Ink do to support  young people defining Brisbane, they have curated the launch of National Youth Week, featuring more than 20 bands, performances and artists over three stages and pop up spaces. Organised by the young people, for the young people, this free event will showcase the best talent in Brisbane.
Even if you're over 25, come support the youngsters striving to create something good for Brisbane. Everyone is young at heart.
