KWAG Youth Council
Amplify your voice and make a lasting impact in your vibrant art scene of Waterloo Region. Join KWAG’s Youth Council for the 2024/2025 cohort and embark on a journey that will transform your perspective on art and the world around you.
As a member, you will engage in bi-weekly meetings where you will delve into the inner workings of an art gallery, connect with contemporary art and artists, and collaborate on innovative ways to share the magic of contemporary art with your community. Including off-site field trips, exhilarating workshops and special events, your voice will be essential for an unforgettable cycle of artistic exploration.
