ACD Tas is very excited to launch a brand-new feature segment especially for young family members in PEPTalk to encourage and promote budding young creatives with disability, called Pepping It Up: Young Creatives!

We are putting the call out this holiday period for creative submissions to feature in future PEPTalk editions. A panel will select their favourite creative pieces from children and young people in age groups, 5-11, 12-17, and 18-25. Age group winners will receive a small reward in the form of a gift voucher and all entrants will receive a certificate of appreciation for their efforts.

Parents and carers can assist young creatives to set up, tell us about and send in their original creations and siblings can work together to combine their talents to complete creative submissions. We look forward to receiving submissions of any creative works, including sculptures, craft items, paintings, drawings, photography, multimedia, graphic design, and written content (poems and short stories).

We will be accepting submissions on an ongoing basis, with winners announced and published in each edition. If you, or someone you know are young creatives and would like to contribute to PEPTalk magazine by sharing your original creations please complete the below form and send your original artwork to ACD Tas!
