Sign up today for a powerful youth art project,
highlighting the talent, hope, and resilience
of our court-involved young people.
Partnering with the team at the Oliver W. Hill Justice Center’s Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court, we’re putting on an art show! And even better, two artists -Jane Gabrielle McCadden and Caroline Booth – are holding workshops to help youth explore their creativity and prepare work for the show.
Download the flyer here to share with our court-involved young people.
