ArtBridges is pleased to report that the Inuvik Youth Centre re-opened its doors at the the end of June after being closed for nearly two years. For now, the centre will be operating on a drop-in basis every Friday from 4 to 10pm, during which time youth have access to art and crafting supplies and a variety of musical instruments, including guitars, tambourines and bongos. The centre hopes to expand its arts programming in the future so check back for updates. Congratulations Inuvik Youth Centre!
