Youth Art Board
Group projects, collaborative work, and community interaction.
Youth Art Board is Hyde Park Art Center's program for fifteen (15) dedicated South Side high school students. This group meets weekly throughout the academic year, to develop group projects, curate exhibitions, and represent the Art Center at public events such as at the Art Center's "Mischief Night." Youth Art Board is designed to challenge young people to connect with art exhibitions, programming, as well as important people and places from around the city of Chicago....All this, and it's fun!
