Whittlesea FReeZA Crew are looking for young artists aged 12 to 25, looking for a paid opportunity to showcase their skills.
On Friday, March 1, the event will be held at Westfield Plenty Valley.
It is part of Whittlesea council’s FReeZA program, a state government initiative that offers young people the chance to lead the planning and staging of music and cultural events.
These events are alcohol, drug, smoke, and vape-free, tailored specifically for young people.
The program provides paid opportunities for young local artists keen to perform in their community.
Expressions of interest to perform at the event are now open and will close on Thursday, January 25.
Sandy, a young resident from Lalor, has been an integral part of FReeZA since 2022.
Facing challenges with university, Sandy found solace and inspiration in the FReeZA program.
“Since joining FReeZA as a performer and committee member, I have connected with amazing individuals and performed in front of hundreds of people at many events,” she said.
“This experience has not only boosted my confidence in my musical journey but has also allowed me to achieve significant milestones within a year.
“I am immensely grateful for the unwavering support I have received from the FReeZA Crew, their encouragement and guidance have been invaluable to me, and I couldn’t have asked for a better support system.”
