Young People’s Stories of Community: A Hume Anthology 2023

Submissions now open

The Hume Youth Anthology is an annual published collection of creative works from young people in Hume City. 

Every year young people ages 6 to 24 are invited to submit a drawing, poem, short story, comic or photograph reflecting a shared theme. The Anthology was inspired by the voices of Hume’s young people, and it is an opportunity to recognise and celebrate their creative talents. 

The theme for the 2023 Hume Youth Anthology is Community. Details of how to submit your work will be available closer to the date.

Submission will be considered for the printed 2023 Hume Anthology and Best Creative Award Categories:

• Best creative piece - 6 –11-year-olds
• Best creative piece - 12 – 18-year-olds
• Best creative piece - 19 – 24 years olds
• Community favourite (all ages)

The 2023 Hume Youth Anthology will be unveiled to the public at an end of year event where participants are awarded a Certificate of Achievement and presented with a copy of the printed anthology.
