YAE has just completed its 12th year. Thank you to all those who helped make this year's program a success!
In November 2012, 48 artistically inclined high school students travelled from across the territory to Dawson City to take part in four days of intensive workshops with a professional artist. Students chose one of four courses to study for the duration of the program, in which they honed their skills through daily exercises and explored creative ways to express their ideas.
The Youth Art Enrichment program provides participants with an invaluable opportunity to broaden their understanding of a creative discipline of their choice for an intense and sustained period. In addition to focused coursework, Youth Art Enrichment presents activities which encourage students to explore and discuss career and educational choices, socialize with like-minded peers from around the territory, and to begin developing their portfolio.
Student work will be exhibited at Robert Service School in Dawson City in early 2013 and the Yukon Arts Centre in March, 2013.
