Workshops designed to teach attendees how to develop art programs which appeal to young people will be held in Wondai and Blackbutt next month.<\/p>\n

Former South Burnett artist Olivia Everitt – now based in Gympie – will be facilitating the “Level Up: Designing Art Programs for Children and Youth” workshop on February 22 at Blackbutt Memorial Hall (noon-3:00pm) and on February 29 at The Studio, Wondai Regional Art Gallery (11:00am-2:00pm).<\/p>\n

The events have been funded by the South Burnett Regional Council\u2019s Regional Arts Development Fund, so are free to attend.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m excited to return to the South Burnett next month,” Olivia said.<\/p>\n

\u201cMany artists and groups are looking for meaningful ways to interact with young people and foster a love of the arts in the next generation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“I have over 12 years\u2019 experience in co-ordinating art programs for children and youth. This is an opportunity to share tried and tested strategies with participants.\u201d<\/p>\n

The workshop is recommended for artists, arts organisations, festival organisers, event managers, arts workers, creative businesses or community development professionals keen to develop art programs for young people aged 0-18.<\/p>\n
