Teens

Do you love art? Reading? Our teen program, Brain Sparks, may be for you! This program is for Erie County teens who are 13-17 years old (or 8th to 12th grade).

Each month features a different art medium and book. Registered teens receive a box of art supplies and a book to keep. Participants will also receive a Creativebug website subscription (good for a year). These supplies are to be used at the monthly Brain Sparks program. 

There are two sessions each month and teens must be able to attend both sessions since the skills build from the first session to the second. At the first session, we learn how to use the art supplies. At our second session we discuss the book and, using the skills we learned previously, create something inspired by the book.
