ILYouth2 ("I Love Youth Too") is a vibrant Portland youth arts program by the beloved ILY2 gallery, dedicated to fostering creative thinkers and makers through small-group camps, workshops, and creative hangouts! Located at Lloyd Center, this one-of-a-kind space also features a gallery showcasing intergenerational exhibitions and a retail area spotlighting youth-made art and goods — because here, young artists aren't just learning, they're being celebrated. As one camper's parent put it: "every time I go to ILYouth2, I feel like my life is starting."
$30 - $15 - $5 sliding scale (covers materials/studio access)*
Scholarships available
2x monthly, recurring (typically 1st and 3rd Friday but check our calendar to confirm!)
12-3pm, drop-in style hangout (stay for full or partial time ; bring a lunch if you’d like!)
Pre-registration is not required, but youth must be registered (via this page) and have an active Liability Waiver with ILYouth2 to participate. Youth who’d like to leave the studio on their own (ie: not be checked-out by a parent/guardian) must also have an active Independent Release Waiver with ILYouth2.
Home School Studio is recurring (2x a month) studio hangout for home schoolers, unschoolers, and other independent learners!
During each hangout, ILYouth2 staff will have a project that youth are encouraged to try out — but youth are also welcome to bring their own art projects that they’re working on (especially if they’d like some support from peers or ILYouth2 staff!), or to use ILYouth2’s drawing and collage materials.
Parents/guardians are welcome to hang out in our gallery/shop area (directly adjacent and open to the studio) during Home School, if it is helpful to and consensual with their kiddo(s).
*Pricing is currently per-session. Spots do not expire, you can buy any time and it will only count once you’ve used it (eg: you could buy a spot in March and come to a May session).
