The Hidden Youth Project is a photographic exhibition by young people.

Professional Photographers Amanda Jobson & Stuart Griffiths have facilitated photographic workshops from March 2012; with Xtrax, a young peoples' drop in Centre. The youth group experienced manual film cameras, taking photographs on location around Hastings. They developed their own film and used darkroom facilities at Sussex Coast College Hastings.

The photographic work has been developed with written responses, from the youth group. This project is a key community project for the Brighton Photo fringe festival Hastings 2012
