The Youth Voices student producers created digital murals of their neighborhood and the places that are meaningful to them. Each mural contains 3 to 4 hot spots and a brief description below of these places as well as some information on their experience in Youth Voices. Click on the image at the bottom to view the mural.
For my mural I went to La Estrella, Tams, Thrift store, and some other places in Highland Park. I put these as my hot spots because I usually go there to eat and go buy antique stuff. Highland Park is very historic and has the original Route 66.
Through Youth Voices you learn about new websites, you learn how to edit video, audio, and collages. You work with others and you actually have fun, messing around with video or audio to decide what you want to see or hear.
Support for the Departures is provided through these funders as well as local community partners and viewers like you.
