Teen Arts New Jersey has launched "Creative Change Makers," a group exhibition at the Long Branch Arts & Cultural Center featuring works by high school students from across the state. The showcase focuses on the theme of sustainable art, with visual, performing, and literary submissions exploring environmental issues, animal ecosystems, and community health. Selected top performers will receive honorariums during the New Jersey State Teen Arts Festival in June 2026.
This initiative highlights the intersection of youth education and environmental activism within the regional art scene. By providing a professional platform for students to address global crises like climate change, the program aims to bridge the gap between creative expression and community advocacy while fostering the next generation of New Jersey artists.
