13 to 19 opens with a launch party on Saturday the 23rd of February. It is an interactive exhibition developed by the Pine Rivers Heritage Museum, in conjunction with Catalyst Youth Arts Organisation and students from local high schools (Pine Rivers State High School and Bray Park State High School).

The event will feature performances by Dissonance, a local teenage band, and Return of Saturn who will perform hits from the 1960s and 1970s. Festivities will start at 3:00pm and end at 5:00pm.
