By showcasing art that speaks to “The Future We Want”, we aim to demonstrate the ability of local community to organise, provide renewed hope, and most importantly, drive to take small, necessary steps towards a more sustainable future.

Then in June 2021 we will come together in person to celebrate the exhibition in full, with live performances including spoken word, song, and dance. We hope to see you online Saturday, December 12, and in-person for the full celebration next year!

As always, we respectfully acknowledge that this online event will be hosted by individuals on the land of the Turrbal and Yuggera peoples, as well as watched by others from across many Nations. The entire United Nations Young Professionals organisation pays our respects to Elders past, present, and emerging.
