The Joburg Development Agency (JDA) is calling for 15 youths to join the agency in telling the world a different and fresh story about their experiences of Alex.
The initiative targets 18- to 25-year-olds who can demonstrate their knowledge of the township.
The 15 outstanding creatives will join the #MyAlex project and will participate in a month-long entrepreneurship training programme culminating in the production of a booklet and an exhibition showcasing their perceptions and voices about the township.
Those participating will be expected to submit two-minute pitches to be adjudicated by a team of creative professionals at the My Alex Open Day at Sankopano Community Centre on 10 April at 9am.
The pitches could be a poem or a song, an image or an idea, something they have personally developed or picked up that they think best expresses the unique spirit of Alexandra.
Youth wanting to enter the competition should tune in to Alex FM at 3pm to find out more about the event.
