Visit: Prologue. Portraits for future selves ✨
Works from the Youth Art Mentorship Program. On view at the AGP until October 5, 2025.
Speaking in the vocabularies of fantasy and reality in the grammar of abstraction and realism, these artists deconstruct and reconstruct their world with hope and anxiety.
The culmination of the 2024/25 Youth Art Mentorship program, this exhibition includes painting, drawing, collage, and sculpture by artists Lillian Bleecker, Jay Hopkins, Violet Jackson, Anaïs Le Goaix, and AJ Livings.

About the Youth Art Mentorship Program (YAM):
Now in its fourth year, YAM provides an opportunity for artists at the end of their high school careers to work with an artist-mentor, developing work for exhibition at the Art Gallery of Peterborough.
Through the program, selected youth artists receive training in visual arts and creative administration, which can open doors to a breadth of careers including animation, industrial design, architecture, and the non-profit sector.
