Youth Arts New Zealand (YANZ) is a youth-led creative social enterprise and registered charitable trust that connects, showcases and develops the next generation of Aotearoa's creative rangatahi (youth). Our mission is to build an equitable platform for rangatahi to access and experience the creative arts, both recreationally and professionally. Currently based in newly-developed youth hub Shore Junction as part of their youth accelerator programme, YANZ is positioning itself to become a national provider of creative programmes and initiatives that support the hauora and development of our rangatahi.
