Tantrum is a co-operative which means we’re a member-owned not-for-profit organisation. We’re immensely proud of our community – the individuals and groups, young and not-so-young workshop participants, emerging artists, industry professionals, supporters, donors, staff and Board. Without you, Tantrum wouldn’t be able to achieve its mission of empowering young people with creativity, confidence and connectedness so they can positively shape their lives and the world around them.
