Latest news from the Lowdown office

Below is a very important message regarding the future of the Lowdown program from Carclew Youth Arts? Chief Executive, Tricia Walton.

You will be aware that Carclew Youth Arts, South Australia's peak youth arts organisation, has decided it is unable to continue providing the national project Lowdown as it no longer fits within Carclew's core business.

Carclew has endeavoured to find Lowdown a new home, however research and negotiations have not identified another organisation with the capacity to support this national project in the current climate.

Whilst Lowdown is coming to a close, the many years of reviews and articles will live on through a project dedicated to recording and cataloguing the content of back editions of the print magazine which was the precursor to Lowdown Online. You will be able to keep up to date with this project at www.carclew.com.au over the coming months.
