Influence Lab is The Literature Centre’s creative, youth-led program, giving young people the opportunity to explore ideas, share perspectives and influence change through storytelling and the arts.

More than 250 students from four Perth schools, Governor Stirling Senior High School, Roleystone Community College, Lakelands Senior High School and Ballajura Community College have worked alongside creative professionals to develop and share their own anti-vaping messages.

The exhibition showcases a diverse range of student work, including drawings, lyrics, sculpture, poetry, television commercials and documentaries, demonstrating the many ways young people can use creativity to communicate ideas and influence change.

The exhibition is free to visit and runs from 3 October to 21 October 2026.
