Youth Programs
Programs that support, empower and elevate the young people of Alice Springs.
Alice Springs Town Council acknowledges the diverse skills, interests and needs of young people who live, work or study in our municipality. We know that young people enjoy opportunities to develop their skills, engage with and make positive contributions to their community and express themselves. Our Youth Programs wish to honour this in the way we design, plan and implement programs for young people. We enjoy delivering both regular annual and varied taster programs to support young people’s mixed interests which change, grow and develop as they do. Our programs are focused towards young people aged 12 to 25.
Our regular programs include the Phoney Film Festival, Youth Recycled Art Prize, and Youth Skate Workshops. What’s on can be seen below and register for a workshop here
