YEA! Festival (Young Evanston Artists)

YEA! Way To Go Young Artists!

We hit pause on Family Art Club to lend our support where creativity was truly shining—the 44th Annual YEA! (Young Evanston Artists) Festival in Evanston! It was an unforgettable day celebrating the incredible work of young artists and the power of creative expression.

From bold brushstrokes to thoughtful storytelling, every piece on display told a unique story, coming together as a vibrant tapestry of inspiration and imagination. Art really can connect us—and this event was proof.

A huge thank you to Open Studio Project for organizing such a joyful, inclusive space for young creators and for inviting us to be part of it. And hats off to the teachers, families, and—most of all—the artists, for bringing so much heart and talent to the festival!
