So excited to reconnect with Alex Barbosa (YD Alum 2008) and looking forward to bringing the Youth Design community back together! Stand by!
To our extended Youth Design family
With tremendous gratitude, a heavy heart, and sincere pride, I want to share with you that we made the bittersweet decision to sunset the Youth Design organization at the end of 2017.
This has been quite a journey.
Just over 15 years ago, I founded Youth Design with a mission to provide urban creative youth in Boston with awareness, exposure and training opportunities in design, enabling them to envision and pursue a career pathway that would feed their passion for creativity. Together, we have witnessed the magic that happens when young people who have benefited from our "platform for change" and world-class programming, discover the possibilities and realize their limitless potential to pursue a professional creative life in the field of design and beyond!
I will always be tremendously grateful to each of you and for each educator, mentor, donor, and design professional who has helped us champion and impact young urban talent.
I cannot thank you and the enough for your support to Youth Design and all that it stands for. We have made a difference together and I hope that the Youth Design mission and legacy will continue to thrive in your heart and under your leadership . . . as there is still much work to be done.
With love, Denise Korn / Founder
