This fall, we're making space for young people to share their artwork with the community.

Teens have important things to say - their voices and dreams matter! In November, we're transforming our Community Space into a gallery of teen voice. Teens can enter art that they've already made, or create a project that demonstrates something that teens would like to see in their community.

Creating a Project

If you'd like some help thinking of a project to submit, we have created a Project Brainstorming Toolkit. Alongside that, we are facilitating weekly workshops on Thursdays at 4 PM in the library's Community Space (top floor). All teens are welcome to attend, and no registration is required. If you need access to art supplies, we have a limited capacity to provide supplies. Please fill out this form no later than Monday, October 5 to be considered.
