Connecting Washington youth with special places in their backyard

We are 4 interns from the Student Conservation Association working with the Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park in Seattle, WA. Our project is aimed at informing urban youth about the opportunities available for them in the National Parks and other cultural areas around Washington. We are especially focused on middle/high school students who are old enough to start being independent, but young enough that they may not have the means to coordinate large trips or outings without assistance.

Interns - Claire Parchem, Sophie Turnbull-Appell, Sarah Dunn, Natasha Way

Other Team Members - Kelseyanne Johnson, Leila Mirhaydari, Jimi Hightower

Discounts in the Arts for Teens Through TeenTix

Founded in 2004, TeenTix is an awesome program designed to empower teenagers to be more involved and influential in the arts community in Seattle. Any teen between the ages of 13 and 19 can sign up (http://www.teentix.org/sign-up) to receive a free Teen Tix pass which they can then use to buy $5 day-of-show passes to almost any show or event at any one of TeenTix's 54 partners!

Teens can also head to the TeenTix website to see a calendar of TeenTix-applicable events happening each day - http://www.teentix.org/calendar/month#

Whether it's a performance of The Nutcracker by the Pacific Northwest Ballet or the showing of a new documentary by the Northwest Film Forum, Seattle teenagers can get huge discounts on many major events in the arts and have increased access to museums, galleries, and theaters around the city.
