Program Description

Event Details

 

Welcome to REALITY! 

Step into the shoes of independence at our Teen Reality Fair! Designed for high school students, this interactive financial experience provides a glimpse into the complexities of adulthood.

During the fair, participants simulate financial responsibility of their household, complete with a designated career, salary and family. As they navigate through various booths, they'll confront real-life financial decisions regarding housing, transportation, healthcare, and household expenses, among others.

Attendance is free, but preregistration is mandatory by April 3rd.

Join us promptly at 11am for a comprehensive 3-hour program. Lunch will be provided for participants.

 

This program was made possible in part by the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) grant # LS253655-OLS-23 and the Texas State Library and Archives (TSLAC) .
