About this Event

Join us as we celebrate Syracuse youth through digital art and storytelling.

📅 June 16th
🕕 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM
📍 Community Folk Art Center

Over the past several weeks, 10 talented young artists, alongside teaching artists Iris Williams and Yolanda Stewart, have explored identity, creativity, and self-expression through digital self-portraits and personal storytelling.

Each student created an original digital artwork and written narrative, which have been published together in The Book of Us—a collection highlighting the voices, experiences, and perspectives of youth living in Syracuse, New York.

This special showcase will feature:
• Framed pieces of student artwork
• A celebration of student accomplishments
• Copies of The Book of Us available
• Student book signings
• Light refreshments

Admission is free, but RSVP is encouraged.

A special thank you to CNY ARTS for funding this project and making it possible!
