Happening now: There will be an informal gathering at Alaska State Council on the Arts, 161 Klevin St., Suite 102, at 4 p.m. Monday, July 15.
ATMI would like to thank Alaska State Council on the Arts and lawmakers who have supported funding for the council over the years. With small grants that have been offered through ASCA, we have directly offered the following programs:
2015 | 19 two-hour video production workshops at Anchorage Public Library for youth ages 12 to 19.
2016 | 22 two-hour media-skills workshops at the Z.J. Loussac Public Library & Muldoon Library for youth ages 12 to 19.
2017 | 15 media-skills workshops at Loussac Public Library for youth ages 12 to 19.
2019 | Development of a new podcast production that features youth activities, voices and conversations.
Our hearts are heavy as we look back at the opportunity these programs offered youth in our community and think about the fate of ASCA due to the Governor's vetoes. We hope that before long a state arts agency will be reinstated.
Looking forward, we will continue to find ways to assure Alaska's youth are included, heard and empowered!
