Community Youth Concepts and Bravo Greater Des Moines Release Report on Potential for Stronger Youth Connections to Arts, Culture and Heritage in Greater Des Moines

Community Youth Concepts and Bravo Greater Des Moines are excited to release a Report on Potential for Stronger Youth Connections to Arts, Culture and Heritage in Greater Des Moines. This report is a culmination of a series of focus groups that CYC staff facilitated with middle and high school students across the Des Moines metro to learn how youth define arts, culture, and heritage; learn how to better connect youth to existing opportunities; and identify barriers to participation in existing opportunities. Throughout the focus groups, 102 students participated from 16 different schools.
