The Voices of Youth Supporting Lewiston Video

This event is past.

  • May 11, 2016

As part of their DO YOU DO LEW positive image campaign for Lewiston, on Wednesday, May 11th, the Lewiston Youth Advisory Council will debut a 25-minute “The Voices of Youth Supporting Lewiston” video in which they—along with Farwell Elementary School K-6 students—will share why they love Lewiston!

Following the video, LYAC members will facilitate small group discussions focused on the “positives known about Lewiston” and “negatives said about Lewiston.”  The small groups will then come together as one large group for a wrap-up dialogue as to how residents can be advocates, “cheerleaders,” for their own city.  During the dialogue, there will be an opportunity for small children to participate in Lewiston-related fun activities.

The free event will be held from 6:00 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. at the Lewiston Public Library, co-host of the event, at 200 Lisbon Street in Callahan Hall, and members of the public are urged to attend.  LYAC will also debut two new t-shirts in support of the city they are proud of, compliments of the group’s sponsor, the Lewiston Firefighters Association.
