A Message from TeenTix parent Betsey Brock

Hi, my name is Betsey Brock. I am a TeenTix parent and a member of the TeenTix Advisory Board.

TeenTix makes Seattle a better place. TeenTix makes the arts accessible for teenagers. TeenTix talks to teens about art, film, dance, music, literature, and theater on their own terms. TeenTix energizes them to talk with each other about the shows they see. TeenTix is helping create the next generation of artists, art consumers, and philanthropists.

As a parent of a teenager who also works with teenagers, I've seen the impact that TeenTix makes first-hand. That's why I sit on the advisory board, and that's why I'll be at the First Annual Teeny Awards Dinner on Saturday, September 14th, cheering for and supporting this terrific program. On behalf of the entire TeenTix Advisory Board, I hope you'll be there, too. Click here to buy your tickets today, and LONG LIVE TEENTIX!

Sincerely,


Betsey Brock, Director of External Relations at Reel Grrls, and TeenTix parent
