Memory Soup

April 4 – 14, 2024

Teen Art Council Exhibition Memory Soup Banner Image

Memory Soup is an exhibition showcasing artwork in all media by Broward County teens curated by student members of NSU Art Museum’s Teen Art Council, which highlights the unique perspectives and experiences of teens across Broward County.

The Teen Art Council (TAC) at NSU Art Museum embraces teens and empowers peers within the museum space by providing programming and support that enhances leadership skills, critical-thinking and developmental milestones for an emerging professional. By fostering a designated, incubated safe space for teens’ perspectives to convene, NSU Art Museum initiates lifelong relationships with the teen demographic. Its mission is to create spaces and programs for teen representation and bridge the gap between teenagers and NSU Art Museum.
