Vantaa's cultural youth work center is Vernissa Cultural and Multipurpose House.
In Vernissa's animation and film workshops, the young can familiarize themselves with movie-mak-ing and try making their own movies. The free-of-charge workshops give rise to many prize-winning animations and movies every year. You will see both beginning and well-known musicians, theatri-cal and dance performances as well as other per-forming art events on Vernissa's stage. The house also offers training premises for the young.
The Theatre of Tikkurila and Vantaan elävän musiikin yhdistys VELMU ry also operate in Vernis-sa. The Theatre of Tikkurila provides basic art ed-ucation in theater and circus art, whereas VEL-MU arranges monthly youth-targeted club events. Vantaa's other youth houses also offer band activ-ities, theater, dancing, and handicrafts, see map on pages 4–5.

CULTURAL YOUTH WORK
Duck PatrolThe street patrol, begun in 1993, derived its name from a car rear window. The vehicle in question had just been Ankkarock's maintenance car, and
somebody had written the word "Ankka", "Duck" on the dirty window. "Duck" became first the patrol's nickname and later its of-ficial name. The logo, still used today, was drawn by a then-10-year-old youngster.
The Duck Patrol consists of special youth workers,
youth workers, and trained volunteers. Any young person, parent, official, or anybody concerned about a young person's behavior can call the Duck Patrol. The employees visit schools and youth houses to inform about their activities. Upon request, they will also speak at various events and, for instance, PTA meetings.
ff West Vantaa tel. 040 717 4216 ff East Vantaa tel. 0400 427 712
Special youth workSpecial-youth-work professionals support the young as regards school attendance, substance abuse, bullying, or any other issue that trou-bles them. The primary target group consists of 13-6-year-olds. You can contact a special youth worker by phone, through Facebook, or you can

visit the youth houses where they attend, among other things, youth evenings. You can meet the employee alone, with a friend, with parents, or with someone else that is close to you. The em-ployee and the young person concerned togeth-er ponder on what kind of support the situation requires. We aim to support the young and their families in their everyday lives. When required, we try to solve matters in cooperation with our part-ners, for example, school employees.
