The Youth Performance Festival

The Youth Performance Festival (YPF), a collaboration between Valley Performance Playground and the Northampton Center for the Arts at 33 Hawley, is a Free opportunity for youth artists ages 8-18 to create original performance pieces under the guidance of mentor artists in the fields of music, dance, theater, poetry/spoken word, and video. YPF centers the creative agency of young artists, and is committed to supporting them as they discover their own creative processes.
