Youth Arts Arise Fall Term Now Enrolling

We’re gearing up for this fall’s session of Youth Arts Arise, our FREE arts education program for students ages 11 to 19.  This is a FREE after school opportunity to explore  creativity in a wide range of artistic mediums.  Did we mention it’s FREE? Workshop themes encourage positive self-expression by means of exploring a multitude of cultures and traditions, embracing diversity while simultaneously working towards a better understanding of  individual identity.
The fall session will run Tuesdays from 3:30pm-5pm,  October 6th through December 8th.  Registration is OPEN for the semester.  Fill out the YAAFall2015RegistrationForm (or pick one up in person at 191 Highland Ave., Suite 1C, Somerville, MA).  Participants can sign up for Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or both.

​Questions? Email education@artsatthearmory.org and we’ll be happy to help!

Big thanks to The Boston Foundation for supporting Youth Arts Arise through a Vision Fund grant!

Here at the Armory, we have a wide array of events planned that are as varied as the soon-to-be colors of the leaves and we are excited about every single one!
