Get Involved! Help out with Youth Art Enrichment!

KIAC is in search of folks to host a meal st KIAC for our upcoming Youth Art Enrichment program, March 19-22. This is an awesome program that requires a lot of community support – but don’t worry, it’s fun and easy to help out!

What is Youth Art Enrichment (YAE)?
YAE is an annual four-day intensive art program for Yukon youth (aged 14-18) hosted by KIAC. This long-running program is now in its 17th year.

What does hosting a meal entail?
Hosting really just means providing a meal (lunch or dinner) for hungry youth, instructors and chaperones! For a maximum of 35 people.

You would be responsible for:

  • Choosing the menu for your meal
  • Purchasing the food (we will provide you with a PO to use at Bonanza and the General Store)
  • Sourcing a kitchen helper or two, if required
  • Preparing the meal on the day of
  • Clean up following the meal

Meal and Date options:
Lunch (12-1pm) and Dinner (6-7pm) will be offered throughout the program starting with Dinner on Sunday Mar 18 and ending with Lunch on Friday Mar 23.

Other info:
Meals provided during the program do not need to be fancy by any means! We’re happy to be able to provide basic, hearty, home-cooked food for the youth.
Past meals include: Tacos, Soup & Sandwiches, Chili, Mac & Cheese, Pizza, Lasagna, Pierogis, Stew, Curry…and many more.

*Want to help out but can’t do a meal? We’re also looking for a variety of baking over the course of the program and would happily take anything you can offer.

Please contact Ange or Marie-Claire at programs@kiac.ca or call 993-5005 if you’re interested. We need all the help we can get!
