Mission
ArtsConnection Teen Programs provide young people with various art-going, art-making and writing opportunities that challenge them intellectually and socially, helping them to develop greater college and career readiness skills, extending their experience beyond the classroom. Our program attracts 20,000 young people each year through High 5 Tickets to the Arts, Teen Advisory Council, Teen Reviewers and Critics, Student Art Program, Pizza and a Movie and Internships.
Activities
This summer we’re offering Map Free City a FREE, intensive Teen Reviewers and Critics program in July. Based on your choice of dance, music, or multi-arts, we will be exploring the best of NYC by travelling to FREE arts and cultural events in all 5 boroughs. Participants will write about their arts experiences and publish content on The Journal of Art and Reviews (The JAR).
