In the Name of Food- The 4th Annual Green Teen Photo Show. The Green Teen program empowers urban youth to be effective community change-agents by immersing them in the local food system. This youth development program teaches life and work skills through hands-on experiences in farming and gardening, health and nutrition, entrepreneurship, and leadership. This spring, we armed six Beacon teens with cameras to capture a part of the local food system that touches their lives. What resulted is much more than photographs of food- we are shown where their food comes from, how it is prepared, and who is involved in the growing of it.

Beacon Riverfest: To Be Powered by HumansVolunteers Needed! June 26
Things are really coming together for Beacon Riverfest, a BACA sponsored event which will be on June 26 on Beacon's waterfront. We're at that moment where we are discovering more and more kinds of jobs to get done on the day of the event, and we'd be grateful if you could lend a hand.
So many folks over the past several months have said those heartfelt and magical words: "If you need any help, ...if there's anything I can do, ...if you need an extra set of hands..." If you are one of those people, please let us know! Because we could use your help: greeting people; mingling; selling t-shirts, gate-keeping, poster-hanging, postcard-distributing, street-teaming, loading in, cleaning up, and mostly just helping to make this concert event a big, big success.
If you can volunteer in any way, please email Beacon Riverfest 2010 Volunteer Coordinator and BACA Board Member Kelly Ellenwood at kellenwood@beaconarts.org
