SmartArts calls for interest in Amplify project

Collaborative performance in action.

SMARTARTS is collaborating with young people in the Nambucca Valley and Kempsey Shire on Amplify, a creative youth project that will provide an interactive program of singing, songwriting, music production and event management workshops.

Young people of the region will also be supported to co-design and co-produce ongoing youth music and performance events.

The project is funded by the NSW Government Youth Opportunities Initiative.

SmartArts manager Denni Scott Davis said young people from across the Nambucca Valley and Kemsey Shire are invited to register their interest in participating.

“This will enable us to plan a comprehensive program of free events,” she said.

The young people will present and perform at events during Youth Week in April 2026.

If any local young people are interested in the project, please contact 0498 880 355 or admin@smartarts.au.
