To Strengthen Our Community, Foster Creativity and Celebrate Life Through the Arts.
The Youth Advisory Council
The Fort Dodge Fine Arts Association, is pleased to announce that we are
accepting applications for our 3rd year of the Youth Advisory Council, which
offers young leaders a voice in shaping the arts and culture in our community.
The initial tasks will set forth strategies for advancing arts education across
Webster County, both in schools and in communities, with a focus on Creativity,
Kindness, Equity and Inclusion.
The Youth Advisory Council will be comprised of up to 15 young students, ages
14 – 18, who are passionate about the arts and have an interest in civic action.
Representatives from community-based organizations, arts organizations, school
districts and private teaching studies are invited to nominate youth to serve on
the Youth Advisory Council. Youth may also nominate themselves, but must
include a letter of recommendation that describes why they are a good candidate
for this opportunity.

2. FDFAA Provides scholarships for people in our community.
