Youth Voice - What Matters Exhibition
Opening Saturday 5 April 1:00pm at the King Island Gallery, Currie Wharf
What do young people in our island community care about most? What dreams, struggles, and passions shape their world? What Matters is a powerful, youth-driven exhibition showcasing the voices of young islanders across all mediums. Through their creative voice, our island’s youth explore the issues that define their lives and identity. This exhibition is a space to speak, be heard and be seen. We are celebrating the perspectives, creativity, and bold ideas of the next generation of King Islanders. What Matters isn’t just about art — it’s about listening, learning from, & amplifying the voices that will shape our island’s future.
This exhibition is supported by Healthy Tasmania and King Island Council.
Exhibition continues until 18 May 2025.
