Future Reset

Future Reset is centered around enhancing mental wellbeing and social connection through art, creativity and culture, with young people leading the charge.

Arts Mildura aims to foster a vibrant connected community. We’ll deliver a program in school, after-school, holiday and weekend programs for young people in visual arts, dance, creative writing, storytelling, digital media and music.
