About Year of Young People 2018 is Scotland’s Year of Young People. It aims to inspire all ages through its young people (8-26) by celebrating their achievements, valuing their contributions to communities and creating new opportunities for them to shine on a local and global stage. Diverse CiTay has been created by local young people working alongside partners at Perth College UHI, Horsecross Arts, Culture Perth & Kinross, Perth & Kinross Council, and local businesses, and is the first large scale event of this kind to be held in Perth. We hope it will create an opportunity for future events of this type in Perth and Kinross.
