City of Swan - Ellenbrook Youth Centre

The Ellenbrook Youth Centre is a multi-purpose facility with unique and modern spaces. The Youth Centre provides a safe space for young people aged 12 -25 years who study, work, live or socialise in Ellenbrook and surrounding areas.

The centre provides young people with access to qualified youth workers who can provide information, support and referrals to specialised services on a range of topics or issues they may be experiencing. For young people in need, there is laundry and shower facilities available.

Ellenbrook Basketball Courts Mural Installation – May 2026

Following community engagement with 244 participants, the City has appointed artists Kyle Hughes-Odgers and Chris Nixon from Moving Colour Studio to deliver a new mural at the Ellenbrook basketball courts.

Installation will take place over about 2-3 weeks, starting on Monday, May 4, 2026. During this time, access to the courts will be temporarily restricted to allow the artwork to be safely completed.

The mural reflects what the community told us they value most bringing together energetic, vibrant colours and flowing patterns that suggest movement and connection.

We look forward to unveiling the mural once complete.
