PRAKSIS Teen Advisory Board (PTAB) are delighted to welcome you to the release of the book, How do we know? Institutional listening and young agency in the arts and the podcast, Language in art - from young perspectives.
Sadly, in the art world, youth and minorities are severely underrepresented. With this launch PTAB hope to help change that, at least a little. PTAB, a group of 16-21 year olds, have come together with Index Teen Advisory Board, Publics Youth Advisory Board, team members at their associated institutions, and a range of artists and others to make these exciting recourses. They are tools to help other young people learn about the art world, as well as to offer inspiration for those working in the arts.
The launch will include a performance, book signing, a panel discussion, music, mocktails, pizza and more.
