The Advocates’ teen interns, the ETC’s (Every Teen has a Choice), are hosting an open house on February 13, from 4 to 6 p.m. at Silvercreek Art Gallery. The open house promotes the Love Shouldn’t Hurt Campaign carried out as part National Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention month during February. The event features art and performances by local teen artists and musicians and highlights teens’ personal relationships and how they define what is and is not love.

High school students from Wood River High School, Sage School, Silver Creek and The Community School submitted art projects and volunteered their musical talents for this event. “We’re bringing a very diverse range of students together to showcase how they feel about love. It will be a very educational and fun event for all ages.” said Wood River High School Student Body President, Brady N. Delgadillo, who is also an ETC intern.

 All community members are invited to eat, drink mingle, and listen to music and view art and support local teens.
