Celebrating our Youth!

Although I’ve been in and out as an FCP staff member, and taken on different roles at the Center, one thing has been consistent: working on the exhibit and activities for Youth Art Month for three years running. And it is such a fun time at CCA. Not only do we feature the Youth Celebrate Art and Culture exhibition, which hosts artwork from K-12 students in the FUSD system, but we host youth performances and art workshops for kids.

When putting together the Art Exhibition, we depend on 100% participation from all FUSD public and private schools, which results in great variety. The artwork is always innovative and often stunning- it truly showcases the talent in our local youth.

Our youth performance day on February 27th, takes place during the opening reception. The reception takes place from 1-4 PM and the performances take place at 2 PM. The performances feature live dance and song from a variety of youth groups. Always lively, this event packs the auditorium.

During Spring Break (week of March 15th), we will offer multiple workshops for kids of different ages. The workshops will be taught by NAU Art Education students and will have several themes and use a variety of materials. Workshop sign up’s will be available soon, so be sure to call in and check if you are interested in having your children attend.

Mark your calendar’s for Youth Art Month (the month of March), with the opening reception of Youth Celebrate Art and Culture exhibition on February 27th, 1-4 PM.
