Thanks to all who attended Flux: Fest!
Flux: Fest celebrated arts projects that have taken place throughout 2022: All aimed to give young people new tools for self-expression, so that we might see our futures differently.
Thank You to ALL the Flux project members – for being brave, and bringing your whole selves.
