The Bunker
THE BUNKER IS BACK!
The Bunker is a free, volunteer-run program open to youth in sixth through 12th grades. It is hosted by Northwind Art and a cast of local artists and craftspeople who share their talents and skill-building exercises with youth in our community.
Dear Bunker Families,
We are thrilled to share some exciting changes to our Bunker Teen Art Program! As we continue to foster creativity and artistic expression, we’re shifting our focus to provide more hands-on mini art workshops led by talented teaching artists. We will start off the year in the Bunker Teen Art Program meeting once a week and will reevaluate the frequency after two months.

Mini Art Workshops: Each session will be centered around a specific project, with the expectation that all teen participants will be actively creating art alongside the teaching artist. We believe this collaborative approach will enhance their skills and inspire their creativity.
Monthly Project Posts: You can check our website each month to see the upcoming projects and themes we'll be exploring together.
Open Studio: Once a month, we will host an open studio where teens can bring their works in progress or independent projects to work alongside their peers. This is a great opportunity for collaboration and feedback!
We are excited about these new developments and believe they will create an enriching environment for our teen artists. Thank you for your continued support, and we can't wait to see the amazing art that your teens will create!
We have supplies and snacks available for teens, courtesy of PT Artscape and generous community members who have donated to make this program possible.
