Starting from 2026, Artbox will include more intentional programming to provide greater value add for youths. In tandem with the National Youth Council, Artbox Youth 2026 will feature two interactive job-taster zones where youths learn from industry experts on creating content on social media, as well as directing and acting.

From 2026 onwards, Artbox will work closely with institutes of higher learning (IHLs) to showcase collaborations between the industry and institutes of higher learning (IHL). Watch this space closely for more meaningful partnerships in the future.

Invade took the lead to provide direct, hands-on experience for students through real-world projects. For Artbox 2026, we collaborated with Republic Polytechnic students on marketing initiatives, presenting problem statements, mentoring their campaigns, and refining their proposals alongside their instructors.

To ensure our core audience can be part of the Artbox experience, we are also introducing a new student-rate ticket for the first time.
