Lyrebird Art Association
WHAT WE STAND FOR
Lyrebird Art Association is a teen-founded non-profit fundraiser that works to raise awareness around mental health and other insufficiently discussed societal issues through music, art, and other creative practices.
Initially begun in 2019, Lyrebird Art has weathered the test of time, continuously hosting annual concerts.
Embracing a new year, The Lyrebird flutters its wings again as it prepares for a new flight, ready to mimic and amplify the undermined voices of our local community. We will do our best to stay informed and educate global citizens, making an effort to create a positive change.
