Calling all teens who are interested in making a difference and creating positive change in their communities and beyond! Join us on March 23 for Teen Action Fair 2024: Waste to Wonder.
Teen Action Fair is an annual event created for teens by teens in our Youth Ambassador Program. Engage with local organizations, take part in games and activities, connect with other teens, hear a curated playlist from KEXP 90.Teen DJ Kap Uwak, and enjoy live performances by Rhapsody Project and Totem Star artists, including Lauren Fernandez and Mkmuzz.
This year’s event is tied to our new exhibition, A Better Way to Go. Participants will explore how sanitation intersects with topics like the environment, health care, equal access, self-care, poverty, innovation, and sustainability.
No RSVP is required, but join and share our Facebook event!

I hope that showcasing various teen-led initiatives will empower others to identify issues they care deeply about and take action through impactful projects, whether it’s organizing community service events, advocating for legislative changes, or creating new resources.”
