Teen Junction: Through Our Eyes
Through Our Eyes is a unique community-based project by the youth at the Teen Junction Youth Centre in partnership with the Vernon Public Art Gallery. The Vernon Public Art Gallery strives to connect art and the community and supports emerging artists working outside of mainstream of artistic production. The focus of the exhibition is to give voice to youth and make statements about their lives and experiences in Vernon. We all have a unique voice and presence in our community and Through Our Eyes is an affirmation of the importance of recognition, representation, collaboration, and the arts. Teen Junction Youth Centre is an after-school drop-in center that offers a safe space for youth to relax, connect, and learn. The Centre works with community organizations to connect youth with support and resources when they need it.
