Youth Summit: Our upcoming Youth Summit brings together esteemed Chicago cultural leaders representing a diverse spectrum of industries—from the arts and education to activism and social justice. These influential figures will speak directly to our youth about navigating education, embracing creative identity, and maneuvering through systemic inequities with resilience and strategic insight. Through sharing their real-life journeys, they aim to empower young people to rise as thoughtful, creative leaders in an unjust society.
