Propel Youth Arts

E-Zine

Welcome to the last E-zine for 2009!

It's festive season again! The Propel office will be closed from Monday 21st December 2009 and re-open Monday 4th January 2010. Make sure you watch this space, as we have some exciting news to share in the new year! 

The University Co-op Bookshop and Deckchair Theatre are offering great discounts to Propel members - just in time for that last minute Christmas present! Check out the details in the Propel Members' Quarter.

There are fantastic cultural activities to do over the summer, attend an artist workshop in the Great Southern, view an exhibition showcasing 10 emerging artists' interpretation of Summer, listen to some chill out tunes, or attend a art/literary journal launch.

There are heaps of opportunities for artists practise their skills. A homeschool is looking for a graffiti artist to teach their craft, Fremantle Headspace are offering the chance for artists to promote their work, DADAA is looking for artists to facilitate arts workshops and the WA Circus Festival has a great job for film and photography students!

The Propel team would also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their support and love over the past year and wish you all a happy and safe Christmas and fantastic New Year.

Happy Reading

The Propel Team
