Hi Friends :)
In an effort to raise money for our 4th year (our Senior year, if you will!) we are hosting a fundraising Gala that will keep me up far past my bedtime!
Your patronage and support mean so much to me and to our whole team of volunteers. It’s so surreal to have even made it this far. Like when I realized people consider Kylie Jenner self-made. I started Junior High to offer young womxn, queer friends, and artists of color a space to showcase their artistic pursuits and feel loved, validated, and seen. As a teen, I found solace in spaces that prioritized my safety and inclusion but the only one I knew was my best friend’s bedroom (shoutout to Rachel!). Junior High is my utopian vision for a world that feels like laughing with your best friend but it’s a building and it never make your ribs hurt.
Junior High will always be my first love.
With gratitude,
Faye <3
