PAMA’s Youth Council

The PAMA Youth Council provides refreshing and inspired guidance that supports and empowers local youth to become great leaders and encourages community connectivity through Peel Art Gallery, Museum and Archives. The Youth Council enables youth to share their stories and build community through exhibitions and programming for youth by youth.

Roots and Wings Youth Art Showcase Submission

PAMA Youth Council is looking for emerging artists across the region (Brampton, Mississauga, and Caledon) to showcase their talents through visual arts and performances!

PAMA's Youth Council invites artists (ages 14-21) who live or go to school in the Peel Region to submit their work for Roots and Wings: A Youth Art Exhibition. We are accepting artworks that can be displayed in a visual format (e.g. paintings, sculptures, digital art, photography, printed poetry, etc), proposals for new projects, and completed works that fulfill the submission criteria.

The theme for the exhibition will be "Growth". We are asking artists to consider the question: What does growth mean to you? This theme is not limited to merely one type of growth, but can be interpreted as self-growth, social growth, community growth, physical growth (e.g. plants), and more.

The Art Showcase event will take place on May 24, 2025, at PAMA.  

NOTE: If you are under 18 years of age you will need a Parent or Guardian with you to complete this form.
