YARC Fest hosted by YouthARC will take place on Saturday 13 April at the Youth Arts and Recreation Centre (1 Marketplace, Hobart).

The City of Hobart Youth Programs celebrates Youth Week annually. This year's Youth Week theme is Community Connection: Our Community, Our Voice.

City of Hobart YAS members (Youth Advisory Squad) have been hard at work planning this event since December 2023 and have come up with a plan to expand the community's knowledge of what Youth ARC has to offer and also give opportunity for young makers and performers to promote themselves and make an income using their creative talents.
