County Teens Invited to Join Amplifying Voices Art Project

THESE EVENTS ARE FULL.

All Lincoln County teens, ages 13-19, are invited to unleash their creativity and make their mark in their community at a week-long Amplifying Voices teen art program.

Samaritan Health Services ArtsCare Program and Sitka Center for Art and Ecology are teaming up to offer this unique and intensive art project guided by local professional artists. The result will be two art installations – one at Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital in Lincoln City and another one at Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital in Newport.

Participants who attend the entire week will earn a stipend. Free transportation, translation services, lunch and snacks will be provided. Teens can choose a single session or register to attend both.
