Youth lead celebration at Culture Days

Youth leadership was front and center during Prince Albert Culture Days in 2025, as young people stepped forward to create and share meaningful cultural experiences in their community.

Working together, members of the Community Building Youth Futures (CBYF) group helped create a vibrant mural and produced a video celebrating the benefits of arts, culture and heritage and their power to connect the community. Through this work, the youth involved demonstrated the meaningful impact that can happen when young people are given opportunities to participate and lead.

“We wanted to really highlight it through video to get it out there for more youth to see, look at these amazing things that are happening in our community, and it’s such an accessible way for youth to engage with it, and see themselves in those spaces.”

– Nicole Matheis, program coordinator, CBYF

Their efforts also showed the strength of youth supporting youth. By leading activities during Culture Days, CBYF members helped strengthen participation, build confidence, and create authentic connections within the community.

The Prince Albert Culture Days Hub received support from SaskCulture’s Culture Days Hub Sponsorship, with funding from the Sask Lotteries Trust Fund.
