Photo Exhibit of Teen Moms

A photo exhibit on teenage parents will be displayed at the Riverfront Renaissance Center for the Arts in Millville through Nov. 10.

The Cumberland County Human Services Advisory Council is hosting the exhibit, which includes 50 black-and-white photos of teenage parents and nearly a dozen interviews with the subjects.

The exhibit, "Children of Children, Portraits and Stories of Teenage Parents," was created by San Antonio photographer Michael Nye. His photos have traveled to 120 cities so far, and came to Cumberland County at the request of the county Human Services Advisory Council.

The council sought out the exhibit because Cumberland County has the highest teen pregnancy rate in New Jersey, according to an article in the Bridgeton News. Cumberland's teen pregnancy rate is double those of the state's other counties.

For more information on the exhibit, call (856) 453-7804/7862.
