This project is more than just an art workshop – it’s a chance for young people to connect, build cultural understanding, share their stories, and develop a piece of art that represents their voices. Under the guidance of talented artist and Arrernte man Scott Rathman from Rusted Tin, participants will work together to design a mural that celebrates culture, creativity, and youth perspectives.
