NewMu Teens
NewMu Teens is a five-month, stipend-supported, afterschool program for young people ages 15–19. Continuing the New Museum’s history of critically engaging teens, this program invites young people to interact with contemporary art and culture with a focus on the intersections of gender, race, class, and sexual orientation. Participating teens connect with peers, guest artists, and their own creativity through workshops, artmaking, and discussion. Collaboratively, NewMu Teens develop and produce a culminating creative project to share with their communities.
The program is free and NewMu Teens participants receive a stipend of $500 in support of their participation. They will meet every Monday from 4–6pm, January 13 to May 26, 2025, excluding school recesses.
Applications due Sunday, November 17, 2024, 11:59pm.
