We partner artists with specialists in children’s education, health, welfare and social justice, to design and deliver cross-sector programs in schools and other safe and supportive, child-focused community settings in Melbourne and regional Victoria.

Since 2010 Co-creative directors Dr Ande Lemon and Andrea Rieniets have used their decades of experience and expertise in the arts and community sectors to shine a light on children as creative catalysts for positive community change.
