The resilience of youth in challenging times is the focus of a new secondary school art exhibition.

The Thunder Bay Art Gallery exhibit, titled "Fresh Perspectives," features work by students from Thunder Bay, Nipigon, Red Rock, Dryden and elsewhere in Northwestern Ontario.

For more than 30 years, this annual exhibition has showcased youth through a variety of media, materials, technologies, tools and techniques.
