It is fitting that this is also the name of a group art exhibition in New York which features the work of over 20 adolescent artists and poets aged 13–19 from across North America and (0) the ‘Teen Art Salon’. At the opening of ‘Juvenilia’, instead of a bar, there was a lemonade stand – a coming-of-age reminder that, for most of those attending, the legal drinking age was still a while away. The founder and curator of the exhibition is Isabella Bustamante. Her organization (1) creative adolescents, promoting in real life what teenagers have achieved over social media.

This is my way of giving back. A lot of people look at images and objects to inspire them. I just listen to the sound.” “Isabella found me on Instagram,” says Lauren Tepfer, 16, a photographer. “She mentioned she was (8) for adolescents. At first my mom was like, ‘Who is this person?’ It turned out (9) and serious. After doing some research on Teen Art Salon, I was so excited to be a part of it.
