15 Exhibit Toolkit http://tigurl.org/envisionen We are thrilled to announce the launch of a new toolkit for young artists around the world. 'Envision: A Guide to Showcase Creative Expression' is a resource designed to support budding artists to exhibit their artwork. Through an interactive interface and real-life examples, the toolkit provides tips, inspiration and ideas that will help young artists to effect positive change in their communities through meaningful exhibitions. PARTNERSHIPS AND INITIATIVES Cross-Cultural Collaboration A key focus of our program has been to foster opportunities for youth and educators to collaborate on multimedia projects and change- focused initiatives. In 2013 we worked with 6 global collaboration groups that are developing a diverse range of projects to engage young people in collaborating creatively and working together to effect positive change in their communities. Adobe Youth Voices Youth Summit http://www.tigurl.org/ayvsummit Youth and educators from 23 countries gathered at Santa Clara University for the 2013 AYV Summit. This was an amazing opportunity for all of our TIG youth and educators, as they had the opportunity to participate and create during their one week stay in San Jose. It was an amazing week of creativity, inspiration, learning and sharing that everyone will remember. The youth were divided into production teams where they worked together throughout the week to create inspired media pieces that were showcased on the last day of the event at the AYV Live! Celebration. Adobe Youth Voices has not only given me a voice but also the skills, confidence, friendships, new experiences and a chance to change my environment. I can comfortably work with majority of Adobe's software; I have confidence in all my projects and my message because I know that every message is worth the attention. — Oredola Praise Kayode Youth Participant, Nigeria Perspectives Virtual Gallery http://www.tigurl.org/gg2012 This year we launched a new Global Gallery collection as part of the ongoing "Perspectives" series. The collection showcases the ways that youth have put their creativity and imagination to work in order to provide a unique insight into their aspirations, ideas, and talent. This year's set, entitled Perspectives: Youth Creating Change, celebrates young people's positive achievements.
