Tween Time sponsors a variety of local, national and international programs that give tweens the chance to get involved in their communities and their world. To date, we have sponsored the international Pictures4Peace program in Israel, the First Youth Peace Wall in downtown Denver, Colorado, the "I Am A Bookworm" Program, the Meet to Read Program, the award-winning AlmostHome Bookshelf Literacy Program, the "Strong Families Journal Together" Seminar, the "Sweet Dreams Basket Project" in Boulder, Colorado, and the national "Peace is Important to Me because..."Illustration Contest. If you and your tween or your girl/boy scout troop, classroom or church group would be interested in hosting a tween fest of your own, feel free to contact us by phone at (303) 478-2623 or by e-mail at HappyLifePress@aol.com. Enjoy the photos of our many Tween Fests!
The First Youth Peace Wall of Denver gave young artists the opportunity to create an important piece of public art. This 30-foot wall mural--located for a limited time in the parking lot behind the Pavilions at 15th and Welton Streets-- was designed and painted by the City's youth to become the First Youth Peace Wall in our nation. A contest was held to invite all area youth to have their image of peace painted by them and included on the mural. The Peace Wall was then officially presented as a gift to the City in May 2005 during the Colorado Arts Festival.
"Sweet Dreams" Baskets--crafted by Sojourner Middle School students-- were the hit of the evening in Boulder, CO.
