CREATIVE TERRITORY
Each day at Corrugated Iron we see the transformative power of the arts, amplifying the voices of young people through our vision for ALL young Territorians to be connected, curious and creative. CREATIVE TERRITORY - Access for All program is designed to harness that power and create a lasting impact that empowers young people to thrive.
With your help we can reach more young people.
Corrugated Iron invites individuals, businesses, and organisations to join forces in making a real difference.to support us in raising crucial funds that will expand our reach and provide more opportunities for young people to engage in creative expression and personal growth.
Young Territorians face challenges like youth unemployment, lower education attainment, huge disparities for First Nations young people, mental health struggles and limited access to creative opportunities. Corrugated Iron wants to play our part to turn this around.
We've seen young Territorians find hope, purpose and self-belief through Corrugated Iron, like young Larrakia woman Nyasha Ogden, who fulfilled her dream to go to NIDA (National Institute of Dramatic Arts).
​
But Nyasha's journey is not an isolated one. Everyday we see the incredible talents, resilience, and enthusiasm displayed by children and young people across the entire Northern Territory. They inspire us to do more, to go beyond.
Take Thomas for example. Thomas is the ultimate embodiment of the Corrugated Iron spirit. He's not just a talented performer, he's also a neurodivergent trailblazer who has found his tribe at Corrugated Iron. His journey has been nothing short of awesome, inspiring us all.
