Creative Connections
What is Creative Connections?
Creative Connections has two parts - using art classes on campus to inspire teens within the juvenile justice system who come for a field trip, and spending time with young children at the Neighborhood Art Center. You do not need to be an artist to participate, just a willingness to encourage youth to find enjoyment in being creative.

I LOVE Creative Connections! I am changed as I choose to connect with and love teenagers who often have it much harder than me. They are my heroes. I love attending the program each Monday and feel I can really making a difference there. I also love the volunteers who go and feel that we foster connections that allow all participants to see and be their best selves. I would recommend every BYU student volunteer with Creative Connections.
