In the latest episode of Youth Voices, youth dive into the topic of mental health. Understanding mental wellness starts with listening to those navigating it today.
This production was filmed and produced by @PADNETtv at the Community Media Studio. @padnettv is a program of @longbeachcap.

Flashback Friday! ✨
Taking it back to the Summer 2025 LAMP Intern archives!
📸 This storytelling shot, captured in-studio by one of our photography interns, features two peers stepping into the theme “Light the Way.”
We love the perspective of this image—captured from behind as they face the light, perfectly symbolizing the journey of discovery and the bright future ahead for these young creatives. 💡

New heights, new perspectives. 👨🚀✨ Created by a LAMP Summer 2025 intern, this “Light the Way” graphic reminds us that leadership means shining your light on the world around you. When we lead with conscience, we illuminate the way for everyone. 💡🌎

Check Out Our ARTS! A Study in Contrast (DIPTYCH). 🖼️
This powerful intern-created piece, titled “Light the Way,” explores the essential difference between isolation and collective strength.
The top panel (grayscale) captures solitude, while the bottom panel (full color) demonstrates that true leadership comes through example, supported by community and peers who light the path forward.
At @LAMPLongBeach, we empower our interns to be those leaders.
