In 1974 the Youth Program Committee of the Adelaide Festival of the Arts hosted a program for young people that they called ‘Come Out’.
This program was so successful that it was reborn the following year as a stand-alone festival - the Come Out Children’s Festival.
This special exhibition explores the 50 year history of South Australia’s beloved children’s festival.
