Even more info about Shockwave
Shockwave forms part of a creative skills development program working with young people aged 12 to 25 from throughout the Central West region.
Shockwave aims to build young people’s skills and learning in event production, graphic design, marketing and creative arts such as visual art and installation, performance and multimedia including photography, film and animation.
The program also fosters further exploration into new and innovative creative projects and employment pathways in the Central West Queensland Region for young people.
Shockwave was conceptualised by program participants and has been planned and delivered by a core team of young people living in Central West Queensland, in collaboration with Human Ventures.
