We challenge local up-and-coming visual artists, musicians, actors, dancers and spoken word artists to communicate human rights messages through their different art forms. These art works then become events like music gigs, theatre productions and art exhibitions, where young people are invited to experience human rights in a completely new way.

ARTillery is an initiative of Amnesty International Australia, run by young volunteer activists. At each event, you'll be contributing to worldwide campaigns that call for an end to human rights injustices – issues like asylum seekers, poverty, violence, censorship and indigenous rights. Everyone involved really makes a difference. To find out more about the campaigns, see www.amnesty.org.au

ARTillery runs from 1st – 10th December 2010 in Perth and Melbourne. Come back soon for more details!
