2024 Union County Teen Arts Touring Exhibit Now Visiting Trinitas Regional Medical Center

The Union County Board of County Commissioners is pleased to announce that the 2024 Teen Arts Touring Exhibit is currently on digital display at Trinitas Regional Medical Center in Elizabeth. This year's exhibit is a selection of 21 works selected from the 2024 Union County Teen Arts Festival, an annual two-day event celebrating creativity in the literary, performing, and visual arts held at Trailside Nature & Science Center in Mountainside.

"We are proud to continue showcasing the exceptional artwork created by our students in this traveling exhibition. Their pieces have sparked conversations and inspired visitors at previous stops throughout Union County, demonstrating that artistic expression is a positive experience everyone can enjoy," said Union County Commissioner Chairwoman Kimberly Palmieri-Mouded. "As we bring this showcase to Trinitas Hospital, we are hopeful that hospital staff, residents, and visitors alike will join us in visiting the exhibit and celebrating the creativity and artistry our students have conveyed through their pieces."

As one of the sponsors of the Teen Arts Festival, Trinitas Regional Medical Center is happy to have the digital exhibit on display in their main lobby, located at 225 Williamson Street in Elizabeth.

"We're so proud to celebrate this year's talented teen artists of Union County," said Nancy DiLiegro, PhD, FACHE, President and CEO of Trinitas Regional Medical Center.
