This upcoming exhibition, Incognito: using postcards to get teens talking, is
part of the Keep it Real: LC Youth Festival, May 13th,14th and 15th.

Incognito: using postcards to get teens talking is an exhibition about
teens in Lake Country talking about issues that they are experiencing here
in the community, whether it’s mental, physical, spiritual, or emotional.
We are asking teens, ages 13-18, to anonymously create a postcard that
reflects any emotion or thought, funny or serious or anything in between
about their personal experiences in Lake Country. This is an opportunity
for youth to be heard with- out judgement or criticism and shed some light
on how young people are feeling and hopeful- ly start some conversations.

Postcards can be approximately 4x6’’ in size and can be in any medium
(drawing, painting, collage, etc.). Drop off boxes will be located at the
Lake Country Art Gallery, Boys & Girls Club Teen Lounge, LC Health Planning
Society Office and the Lake Country Alliance Church.

Opening will be on Friday May 13th from 6-9pm with music, food and of
course, post cards!
