Craft Youth Culture is a free arts after-school program designed for teens who are interested in the arts. We are now taking applications for Craft Youth Culture 2024-25. This fall, successful applicants will join a professional teaching artist for weekly workshops exploring hands-on crafting techniques and materials. Students will take inspiration from current exhibitions, and learn about careers in the arts. Applications are open to highly motivated, incoming 9th - 12th grade students or homeschool equivalent, who can commit to being an active attendee of all classes (see schedule below).
