DESCRIPTION:Jan. 20 - Feb. 28, 2020\n\nThe Osher Marin JCC is pleased to present an 
 exhibit based on the local 2019 Youth Poster Contest. The initiative 
 provides an unprecedented public platform for the thoughts and talents of 
 Marin County young artists.  Any local youth, age 12-18, are invited to 
 design a poster that communicates their hopes and concerns about social 
 justice, climate change, immigration, women's rights, firearms regulations, 
 and other issues important to them. Using art, creative ideas and 
 problem-solving skills, youth individually, or in collaboration with 
 others, will develop a poster that informs, challenges and inspires the 
 greater community to take action and make a difference. \n\nHere is a 
 chance for us to collectively learn from the hopes, dreams, fears, and 
 goals of our youth.\n\nABOUT THE ARTISTS:\nThe 2019 Youth Poster Contest 
 attracted 235 incredible posters from 11 high schools and 17 public 
 schools, both public and private, throughout Marin.  Submissions included 
 works focused on social justice, women's rights, firearms regulation, 
 immigration, climate change, gender and sexual equality, among 
 others.\n\n10 finalists, 10 winners and the Producer's Award Winner were 
 selected by a judging panel of professional artists.  Of particular focus 
 in 2019 was the expansion of outreach to engage students from underserved 
 communities. We held four in-school professional artist-led workshops, a 
 field trip to the Haight Street Art Center and an unprecedented 
 five-session, over 5 days, Social Justice Poster Course at Novato High 
 School. \n\nProminent environmentalist David Brower once said: "I'm always 
 impressed with what young people can do before older people tell them it's 
 impossible."\n\nFree\n
