Young Adults Programme

The youth engagement programme has two dedicated Youth Engagement Curators offering young adults aged 14-24 the opportunity to get involved in a variety of interesting projects to access our Leeds Museums and Galleries collections and exhibitions.  
 
Working with you, together, we create a safe diverse space to provide a sense of belonging, creativity and well-being for everyone who participates either on a one-to-one basis or in a group work setting.

Joining our award-winning youth programme, you are meeting with likeminded creatives and the opportunity to develop our exhibitions and events programmes. We collaborate with artists and museum professionals to develop your creativity, confidence and skills.  
 
All three of our dedicated youth groups have won local and national awards for their achievements in changing the arts and museums sector through pioneering work.

No prior experience of volunteering in art galleries or museums is necessary to join our programme. Email youth.curator@leeds.gov.uk for more information and join.
