Arts, Events and Recreation

The Indigo Arts, Events and Recreation program is an engaging, inspiring and inclusive program that works with local young people to facilitate creative and cultural events for the Shire’s young people.

We organise, promote and support opportunities that empower young people to develop the confidence and skill sets to participate, create, organise and lead inspiring creative events. Events are curated throughout the year by young people from across Indigo Shire.

This program is funded through the Victorian Government FreeZA grant

Our 2025 - 2027 "Be the Beat" program includes three priority areas:

  • Audio Visual: Music videos, stop motion, light projection, short films etc
  • Theatre: performance, puppetry, creative writing, poetry, comedy, costume design, prop production etc
  • Culture, Heritage and Diversity: celebrating First Nations People, LGBTQIA+ pride, lost trades, disability showcase, environmental activations etc

We will achieve this by:

  • Inspiring young people through exposure to professional performances, demonstrations and learning experiences
  • Building skills, capacity and pathway opportunities with skill specific workshops and mentoring opportunities
  • Showcasing the skills and creativity of our young people through youth led event design and delivery
     ** All events are drug, alcohol, smoke/vape free and fully supervised.
