Dorothy: Spotlight 2022 by Story Works Alaska

Youth Voice Alaska‘s The Art of Being You is about what we, Alaska’s youth, are made of, how we perceive the world and ourselves, and what lessons have helped each of us find our unique identities. Our first episode is about the comedic life lessons that helped us along the way.

Thank you to the Alaska Children's Trust for helping fund this project.
