988 Create

We would like to thank all of the brave and talented artists that submitted their creations to the 988 Create campaign and the 2023 Youth Alliance for a Healthier Alaska team for their thoughtfulness, guidance and leadership in the campaign! We are incredibly honored to have learned so much from our volunteer professional judge, Cory Woodall from the Juneau-Douglas City Museum.

We were able to award one additional artist in the larger submission category thanks to Cory’s willingness to volunteer. All the winning submissions will be added here once we have finalized versions of their art. You can also preview these pieces on our social media accounts: @ak_youth_voice.
