Here’s a cool photo of the YnY gang at our showcase in the DCA artist books exhibition last week.
We’re looking for new committee members.
The type of people who put the commit into committee.
Highly focused and driven individuals who breathe art and sweat zines.
Sounds like you? Great! Well, here’s the deal:
You’ll assist with the publication of our quarterly zine and special editions, the curation of our launch events and projects, and you’ll help make the Annual General Karaoke happen.
You’ll be working alongside the Yuck ‘n Yum team who are all super nice and friendly types.
It’s an ideal graduate opportunity, one that gives you the chance to make real actual things happen!
Just send us an email at info@yucknyum.org with ‘new committee member’ in the subject line. Please enclose an expression of interest and a CV. The deadline is 1st December.
Send us something for our last issue of 2012 by the 1st of December, or we’ll send big Mitch’ after you.
Alex and Gayle will be representing YNY at Gray’s Art School on Monday the 5th of November where they will be giving a lecture about what we do and what we stand for. It starts at 1pm and is in the Scott Sutherland Building, we’d love to see you there!
For more details about the lecture programme please visit Guests at Gray’s

This year we’ve had dazzling submissions from the furthest of far flung places, but who will be the 2012 AGK champ?
They’re all singing for a place on the karaoke pantheon next to previous winners: artist Rachel Maclean and musicians/artists Joe Howe and Lachlann Rattray.
