National Youth Arts Week will be for youth, created by youth. It will provide an opportunity for young people to express and exchange ideas, showcase talents, get excited about the arts and celebrate their incredible communities. By getting involved in creating and leading National Youth Arts Week events and projects, you will become part of a growing national network of young leaders and artists that continues after the week is over.
To get involved, let us know who you are and where you are. We’ll keep you updated on what others are doing to get ready. We’ll share what’s happening in your community and how you can get involved. We’ll connect you with other youth leaders in your area. National Youth Arts Week is going to be big – make sure you’re a part of it.

The success of National Youth Arts Week depends on people like you to spread the enthusiasm about creative expression. We hope you will create and host events that harness the power of young people in your community.
Events and projects can take place in any imaginable art form, from the traditional (like dancing, theatre and painting) to the inventive (like cooking, gardening and beatboxing).
Think inside, outside and around the box! If you’ve got a talent you want to teach others or an idea that will get people inspired, please share it.
You don’t have to be an artist to take part – if you’re enthusiastic and energetic or if you’re interested in organizing or marketing, we need you! Everyone’s invited to participate and all ideas, big or small, will be heard.
Click ‘Ideas & Help’ to view projects other young people have been working on and get resources on projects that you could bring to your community, as well as getting connected with mentors and leaders who can support you in taking your idea to the next level.
