Radical Banner Making for Radical Youth is a free, creative workshop series for queer young people (ages 16–24), hosted at Birnam Arts this June. Together, we’ll explore activism through the art of banner-making—crafting protest quilts, flags, and statements that reflect what matters most to us. Whether you join for one session or all three, you'll be part of building a new queer community in rural Perthshire, discovering Birnam Arts as a safe(r) space for expression, solidarity, and creativity.

Using recycled and new materials, we’ll cut, sew, glue, and iron together our thoughts and messages—celebrating queer resilience, visibility, and power. The project includes a final Sharing Celebration and a photographic zine to give legacy to the work we create together.

No experience is needed, just bring your voice, your energy, and your radical spirit.

Jaz Grady is a multidisciplinary artist and illustrator from the Clarence Valley, NSW, Australia, now residing in Perthshire, Scotland. Her practice spans illustration, photography, design, videography, and murals, characterised by a bold, playful aesthetic that invites community participation. Jaz is the founder of Average Gallery, a creative collective and community space that hosts workshops, exhibitions, and collaborative projects aimed at making art accessible to all.


Passionate about youth engagement, Jaz develops participatory projects and visual arts workshops that utilise both traditional and non-traditional mediums, encouraging young people to find their voice through creative expression. Her work often explores themes of identity, belonging, and social connection, reflecting her commitment to fostering inclusive and expressive environments for marginalised groups, with a particular focus on creating inclusive, affirming spaces for queer youth.

The Birnam Book Festival Committee were so pleased with how the new facilities in the Auditorium added to an extremely professionally presented event. The lighting allowed us to create staging to match the country’s leading book festival events, such as we’ve seen in Edinburgh.
