YOUTH ART + ACTIVITIES 2025
See Creativity in Its Purest Form at the Youth Exhibit!
Check the info cards next to your favorite works to see if they’re available for purchase.
When you visit the 2025 Youth Exhibit, you’ll step into a space where every wall is filled with art. You’ll find everything from playful shapes, bold details, and vivid hues to minimalist compositions, quiet reflection, and fresh perspectives on established styles and techniques. This is creativity in its purest form: honest, fearless, and full of possibility. And that’s what makes it so powerful.
The exhibit includes works by artists from local schools in Lake Oswego and Clackamas County, award-winning pieces from the Clackamas ESD Regional Art Show, students from the greater Portland area, and art created through Lakewood Center’s Youth Outreach Program workshops.
Thank you to our Youth Exhibit Sponsor!
Curators: Audrey Delgado, Marilyn Katcher, Louise Levin, Jocelin Windsor
Judges: Linda Rindy, Connie Pitts
