Teen Council

The CAMH Teen Council (TC) is a group of motivated young people (ages 15-19) employed by the Museum, who are committed to bringing the art of their time to their peers. They meet regularly to explore the arts and create youth-oriented programming and events.

Every other year, the TC organizes a Perspectives exhibition in the Zilkha Gallery featuring new work by young, Houston-area artists. The TC selects the theme, title, and guest juror, and helps with the design, installation, printed exhibition catalogue, and programming. Last year, TC presented Re: Generation, which featured nearly 50 young artists chosen from more than 400 submissions.

For more information, contact tc@camh.org or call TC Coordinator Peter Lucas at 713 284 8274.

exhibition: Afterwards

On view March 2-31, 2012
Opening reception: March 1, 6:30-8PM

In conjunction with Fotofest 2012, the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston’s Teen Council presents a juried exhibition of photography by Houston-area teen artists entitled Afterwards. The CAMH Teen Council invites young photographers to explore the idea of what happens next? Our lifetime has been filled with monumental events, but as interesting as the events themselves, is what we do after them. For this juried exhibition, we’re challenging young photographers to illustrate the time after an occurrence– the aftermath, consequences, or celebration of an event, big or small. Explore the reverse narrative, evoke a cause from an effect, document a reaction, and/or draw the observer into something she or he just missed. Deadline for entries is closed.
