Fifth Annual Youth Art Exhibition Opening & First Friday Art Walk

Opening reception and Youth Makers Market:

Supporting youth in the arts is one of the most important investments a community can make. Programs like the Youth Show give young people a public platform, build confidence, and validate their creative voices. For many participants, this is the first time their work has been displayed in a professional gallery setting. That experience builds pride and a sense of belonging.

Over the past five years, the Youth Show has grown from a hopeful idea into a cornerstone of MEDIUM Art Center’s annual programming. Each year, more families attend, more students participate, and the level of work continues to grow. The exhibition reflects the strength, diversity, and imagination of the next generation.

The show runs from March 6 through March 31, 2026, at MEDIUM Art Center
