[ART] Presented by the First Niagara Foundation, AK Teens is a mentoring program for young adults living across Western New York and the Southern Tier who seek to pursue careers in the arts. As part of the program, Future Curators pairs up 11th and 12th-grade students with museum staff to prepare and install an art exhibition. This year the exhibition, entitled Coexistence: Humans and Nature, focuses on work created by high school students from Western New York and Ontario. Join the students in celebrating their first museum show on Thursday, April 16 at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery with an evening of tours led by the Future Curators. There will be live music performed by the Nozz Trio, a jazz group from Niagara Falls High School, and Baily Valint, a classical violinist from Kenmore East High School. There will be a reception in the AK Café, 6-7:30pm.
