In recognizing the need to compliment traditional, visual and performing arts, InnerVibe engages youth with various technology design. We would like to extend a version of our Youth Summer Mural Program to kids of all ages in Yukon schools. Collaborative murals are a great way to build teamwork, create connections, nurture existing ones, and discover a unique artistic ability in everyone. An artist mentor from InnerVibe will work with students to design and implement a mural that is culturally and socially relevant to them.
