About this event

When was the last time you had a night out that left you feeling inspired and motivated to act?

We're inviting you to DISRUPT - a powerful showcase of art created by talented young people - who just happen to have experience of homelessness.

Hosted by the Foyer Foundation in collaboration with Y Foundations, DISRUPT, is set to be an art exhibition unlike any other. 

Homelessness is one chapter of their story but DISRUPT is about all their stories - who they are, who they’re becoming and their dreams for the future.

This event isn't just for young people. It’s for philanthropists, policy-makers, youth workers, peak bodies, leaders, colleagues and friends. It's for anyone who:

  • Loves groundbreaking, thought-provoking art.
  • Is inspired by creativity that pushes boundaries.
  • Wants to be part of a community that's making a difference.
  • Believes in a future where every young person has a safe place to thrive.

This is an opportunity to witness the transformative power of art, storytelling and back the power of young people’s talent, stories and creativity.

Join us at Machine Hall on 27 May for an unforgettable experience that will ignite your passion and inspire you to take action.
