YAC Thanks Community for Support at LCYA Fundraiser

The recent Lights, Camera, Youth Action fundraiser brought in a lot of support from the community, and YAC would like to thank everyone involved. The generosity and kindness that we receive from our supporters means so much to the organization. The night went wonderfully and it was great to see everyone. We would like to extend our thanks to everyone involved in the event.

The event brought in quite a crowd!

Presenters from our five Arts-for-Change programs showed their work and explained how being a part of YAC has affected their lives.

Special thanks to the Amherst Regional High School Jazz Workshop for their lovely music and to Peter Hadley Catering for providing delicious hors d'oeuvres and dessert.

If you didn't make it to the event and but nevertheless would like to show your support, you can still donate! You can donate online via Network for Good or send your check straight to YAC, P.O. Box 747, Amherst, MA 01004.

Thanks again to all of our supporters!

Get Up Get Down off to a geat start!

Get Up Get Down is off to a great start this year. Gathering in Hampshire College's Lemelson Center on Mondays and Thursdays, they are already exploring different types of art.

Using plaster, they are learning to make molds of their own hands.

They are also using magazine cutouts to create cool buttons with the button-making tool.
