Program Coordinator: Sylvia McFadden (sylviabobilvia@gmail.com)
Ages: 11-15*
What is it: The
yongunz is a program for younger youth from East Vancouver (youth from
surrounding areas welcome). We meet once a week, on Fridays.
What do we do: We invite in different mentors from the
art and culture sector (writing, photography, etc) to share their skills with
us. We have a central goal of
connecting the workshop to real life outcomes, like art shows, publications,
and so on.
This group, due to
space, is limited. We are happy to
take names on a list.
This is not a drop in program.
- Some
workshops will require more than two hours.
- We
will hold a coffee house to showcase art and performances from the youth
involved is the program (Date TBA).
- All
youngunz members can access other programs at the purple thistle.
- the age is always
negotiable. (for older youth)*
