Insight of Youth, Exhibition and Auction for the Arts is an initiative of ISucceed Virtual High School early graduate Jake Gonzales. Jake developed and organized this program to counteract the social and emotional consequences of COVID 19. Produced as a platform for teenagers to ‘express their feelings tangibly through art’, the event offers parents, adults and the broader community an awareness of how local youth have been affected by the pandemic. The exhibition features new work by young Treasure Valley artists in response to the theme ‘What Kids Have Endured during COVID 19’.
Exhibited artworks will be auctioned. Proceeds will support the artists and the grassroots effort Empty Bowls, an international endeavour to fight hunger.
