Student Day is an opportunity for tertiary and high school students to get involved with art, design and publishing. With programming run by and for students, visitors can watch a live SYN FM radio broadcast of Art Smitten, get advice from young professionals on how to navigate entering the creative workforce, network with stallholders and hear from exciting panel discussions.

The first day of the Book Fair is all about learning outside the classroom and celebrating the work of young people in the art and design sector. Explore career pathways, discover something new and gain valuable insights at the Book Fair Student Day.
