QANTAS SPIRIT OF YOUTH AWARD
Tsuki is extremely proud to be involved with the Qantas Spirit of Youth Awards in 2006. This is an amazing and unique opportunity for young artists in different fields of creativity to have their burgeoning talent and experience jettisoned into a viable career. Here is a way to open those doors and take you directly to the heart of achievement.

After the success of SOYA 2004 and 2005, NOISE - the media-based arts project that profiles artists (25 and under) in the media - will again be coordinating the seven arts categories of SOYA.
SOYA Categories & Mentors
"It's great to be able to see an artist's work develop and to have made a small contribution to making it happen. SOYA helps artists at a critical moment in their career."
Elizabeth Ann MacGregor, SOYA 06 Pictures Mentor.
Other SOYA awards in Dance and Cooking, plus the Chairman's Community Award, are also on offer in conjunction with Qantas partners including The Australian Ballet, Tourism Training Australia, CARE, UNICEF, Canteen, Starlight and Mission Australia.
Tsuki's great love is to participate in ventures that work towards the growth of the artistic and imaginative community in Australia. It is our passion to work on like minded projects such as SOYA, which is a part of Qantas' Sharing the Spirit community initiative, and aims to help young Australians connect with their dreams.
SOYA winners will be announced at a special awards night at the Art Gallery of NSW in October this year, followed by a public exhibition of winners and finalists' works.
