In 2021, AMCS (Australian Multicultural Community Services) launched the Art Against Ageism competition, aiming to challenge age-related prejudice and empower the elderly through artistic expression. This year, the competition attracted over 250 local and international participants, effectively challenging stereotypes and honoring artists from diverse age groups and backgrounds.
In a world that is constantly evolving, there is one aspect of society that seems to lag behind – the way we perceive and treat our elders. To address this pressing issue, the annual 'Art Against Ageism' competition by AMCS has emerged as a beacon of hope, encouraging individuals to wield their artistic prowess to challenge negative stereotypes surrounding ageing.
The AMCS Art Challenge is back! The challenge was initially set up to depict positive ageing - through various art forms - graphic design, painting/drawing, photography and videography - in a society where ageism is one of the highest forms of discrimination.
On Monday 2 May, 2022 at Australian Multicultural Community Services (AMCS)-owned Millennium House in Footscray, The Honourable Matthew Guy, Leader of the Opposition in Victoria, committed $1.8m to assist with the venue’s renovations if elected.
Older adults especially from multicultural backgrounds are at risk of social isolation because of the loss of family or friends, chronic illness, language barriers and hearing loss. Australian Multicultural Community Services (AMCS) are running a competition, seeking ideas about reducing social isolation.
