Are you a creative, curious and ambitious teen? Do you know someone who is?

This summer, teens aged 14-18 in the Vancouver area are invited to apply to be part of YoungStarters: a free arts mentorship program all about creativity, collaboration and community.

YoungStarters initiatives are youth-led collaborations that allow young people to take the lead in arts based community projects. Working in teams and partnered with mentors who are professional artists, musicians and administrators, YoungStarters participate in workshops to develop project ideas, with a $1,000 budget to realize their vision.

By providing young people with the right tools, support and knowledge, YoungStarters activates young people’s creativities while providing them with lasting, relevant skills and experiences. By focusing on community based projects, YoungStarters aims to engage the community through youth-led collaborations exploring diverse art forms.
