Talented and passionate young people from across Allegheny County unite to bring an afternoon bursting with color, rhythm, and storytelling as they share original artwork, poetry, music, and dance rooted in their cultural heritage and lived experiences.This showcase and exhibition is about what happens when we invite our youth to dream. Bring the whole family for this celebration and explore the art, enjoy live performances, food, music, and more. You’ll connect with local artists, get inspired, and maybe take some art home!
