download COMMISSION #2

Fuelled By Youth is an arts commissioning team of people aged 16 – 25 years from across Milton Keynes.

As a team, key decisions are made on the selection of interesting artists and unique new artworks for the city. From film and music to mixed reality – there are no rules on artforms.

In 2021, 300+ under 25s in Milton Keynes expressed that their top concerns were careers and future pathways; equality & representation; and environmental sustainability. The Fuelled By Youth team are building upon these findings; starting conversations; and amplifying the voices of other under 25s through new artist commissions.
