April 4 – April 30, 2025 | Zahner Center
Rooted in the intimate and ever-evolving exploration of self and society, In Our Hands: A Teen-Crafted Exploration of Identity and Expression is a vibrant exhibition showcasing young artists’ bold and thoughtful perspectives. Presented in partnership with The Museum Project (TMP), this teen-led initiative delves into themes of identity, connection, and the human condition through a wide array of artistic forms. From moments of quiet introspection to expressions of collective experience, each work offers a window into how today’s youth interpret, challenge, and reshape the world around them.
In Our Hands… is a celebration of imagination, conversation, and inclusivity—reflecting TMP’s deep commitment to empowering young people to lead with confidence, share their perspectives, and shape cultural spaces in meaningful ways.
