Kids on the coast

Local Year 9 Sunshine Coast Grammar School student, Josie Whitburn, is one of only 100 secondary school students across Australia that will have artwork on display at Canberra’s National Portrait Gallery as part of the Headspace10 exhibition. “It’s a wonderful feeling to have your work recognised as part of such a high profile exhibition and a fantastic opportunity,” she said. “The Headstart10 exhibition not only gives young artists the chance to be recognised but also the confidence to believe in yourself.”
