Nurture your teen's artistic, leadership skills.
The Indy Art Center’s Teen Art Council is a free program for motivated youth ages 13 to 18 who want to participate in visual art outside the classroom and engage in the larger arts community in Indianapolis. The Teen Art Council is the most student-driven of the Art Center’s outreach programs, providing advanced opportunities for students who have already demonstrated a strong and ongoing interest in art.
Members of the Teen Art Council work on Art Center events, exhibitions, and special projects with peers, professional artists, and Art Center staff to develop and deliver art projects and programs that engage teen audiences.
"Teen Art Council has been the one constant in his life this year as he went through many changes. He has learned to step up and be a leader within the supportive framework of the teen council. Yes, it is also about art and he craves the creative outlet, but I think the socialization has been even more important to him."
