Description

Artist and youth educator Evan Bissell combines his painting and artistic vision with multiple writing, arts education, and creative community projects with Bay Area Youth. Bissell's vibrant portraits, created in collaboration with the youth poets of Youth Speaks that he has worked with, will be on display at Intersection as well as at public locales throughout San Francisco. Part of a larger Arts Commission funded "Civic Life Project," this project includes the gallery exhibition, public art projects, youth-based writing and visual arts workshops, and civic engagement opportunities celebrating the importance and impact of writing, arts education and creative community in individual and social transformation. Corresponding activities will also involve other artists and educators demonstrating methods and philosophies aimed at empowering the next generation through creativity.
