Teen Art Group is an immersive arts learning
experience grounded in the cultural, educational,
and experimental opportunities made possible
through a unique partnership between Emily Carr
University of Art + Design and the Vancouver Art
Gallery.
Designed for youth ages 15 to 18, the program
alternates weekly between the two locations: At
the Gallery, participants take part in interactive
experiences with artworks and exhibitions, and
behind-the-scenes sessions with curators, artists,
and other cultural practitioners. The exploration
of art and ideas generated at the Gallery
continues into studio classrooms at Emily Carr
University, where participants join a vibrant
community of learning and gain access to
university resources. Taught by professional
artist educators, the studio component of the
program is an opportunity for participants to
experiment with materials and making, while
developing their artistic expression and voice as
young creatives.
This dynamic program encourages youth to
explore a wide range of topics, ideas, and media.
By the end of the program, participants will
generate new ideas alongside their peers and
produce both independent and collaborative artwork
to begin building a portfolio, all while deepening
their creative, critical and cultural engagement
with the world through art and design.
