Youth Resistance through Art: How Will the Olympics Affect You?
A Special 2-Day Workshop on Art & Silkscreening
-------------------------------------------------------
 
*Are you worried about changes in your city due to the 2010 Olympics?
*Are you concerned about threats to the environment, arts & education and your rights as a young person in Vancouver?
*What do you feel most strongly about?
This two-part workshop will be an opportunity to share your concerns, ideas, and visions of change, and to express yourself through collective art-making.  You will also learn how to silkscreen, so you can print your artwork by hand onto T-shirts, patches, and posters!

Absolutely NO previous art experience necessary.
