Congratulations to the five brilliant young creatives from the South East who have been accepted into the Horizons Creative Industries Career Launchpad Program

Congratulations to the five brilliant young creatives from the South East who have been accepted into the Horizons Creative Industries Career Launchpad Program; Oliver Rose, Alfie Tait, Harry Haggar, Lilli Simpson & Lochlann O'Duibhir!

Horizons is a creative industry mentoring and career development program for NSW regional youth. The project will run over 18 months and will support a total of 75 young people from across NSW.

Our participants will be connected with an experienced mentor from their chosen field who is based in regional NSW. Each mentoring relationship will address the needs and interests of each individual and enable participants to connect into a network of peers to build strong state-wide networks early in their careers.

There are plans to share the experiences of the participants and mentors at the culmination of the project, highlighting the range of creative practice and industries represented.  Our aim is to draw attention to the opportunities open to regional young people in the dynamic and evolving creative industries. The form of this ‘showcase’ will be developed in partnership with the participants.

Thank you to everyone who applied! 

Horizons – Creative Industries Career Launchpad is funded through the Regional Youth Incentive Program of the Office of Regional Youth and the NSW Regional Arts Network.
