ARTours is your all access ticket to creative and cultural events. Free, small group visits that provide transport, supervision and tickets to a range of events.

The Indigo Shire ART program

Inspiring young people to explore creative & cultural activities in North East Victoria.

The ART program is designed to connect young people with creative and cultural activities across North East Victoria by increasing accessibility and awareness. It aims to inspire young people to explore new opportunities, enhance connections, wellbeing and foster creativity and confidence.

There are currently three components to the ART Program

• ARTventurers for those aged 5-12 and Primary School groups: workshops and performances in schools and community halls
• ARTtours for those ages 12-25: Group trips to explore creativity, culture and connect with others
• ARTpass for those aged 16-25: Free tickets to creative and cultural events across North-East Victoria

ART tours - How does it work?

• Indigo Shire Council provide transport, supervision and tickets to creative and cultural events with the aim of inspiring creativity, collaboration, and confidence
• Young people can register for as many tours as they’d like, but spots are limited. Bookings and commitment to attending are required.
• What’s the catch? No catch at all, but we’d love it if you told your friends!

Past Art Tours

The Story of Red, Saturday 6 September at The Cube, Wodonga

Step into a whimsical world where classic tales take unexpected turns! "Fractured Fairytales: The Story of Red" reimagines the beloved story of Little Red Riding Hood, blending dance, adventure, and a dash of mischief.

What happened: A group of young people had a wonderful time "spending time with friends and seeing kids our age perform" if was a fun, relaxing and inspiring Saturday afternoon together.
