Youth Outreach

Flurry’s Youth Development Volunteer, Beverly Lazar Davis, reached out to over 22 youth-serving agencies to provide free youth/chaperone tickets for the 2025 Flurry Festival, and a total of 11 youth aged 6 to 15 and 5 chaperones were able to attend. In 2024, 28 youth and 13 chaperones from 8 agencies- US CRI, Saratoga Mentoring, Mechanicville Community Center, Kings and Queens, CAPTAIN and Wait House – participated in the festival. The Flurry Festival is excited to share this multi-cultural, age-integrated, educational music and dance experience with our community!

Thank you to the Stewart’s Holiday Match program for supporting youth participation at the Flurry! Here are comments from some of the folks who attended the 2024 Flurry through this program:
