Bronx Museum Teen Council

Bronx Museum Teen Council Teen Art Program at The Bronx Museum of the Arts.

The Bronx Museum Teen Council makes contemporary art and culture accessible to urban youth through a series of different platforms. Structured around the production of MuseCasts, video productions available on YouTube and MuseZines, a small publication, Teen Council is comprised of a group of high school students working closely with two instructors in the Museum’s Media Lab. Scheduled concurrentl

y with the school year, this 8-month program provides teens with an open forum for the expression of ideas and dialogue on issues affecting young people, and the promotion of the Bronx as an important cultural, political and artistic force. The Bronx Museum of the Arts’ Education Programs and Teen Council is made possible with support from Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation, Anonymous, The David Rockefeller Fund, Simón Bolívar Foundation, New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature; Keith Haring Foundation, Robert Lehman Foundation; New York Yankees Community Council; and The Peter Jay Sharp Foundation.

"Teenagers reveal their true selves when experiencing struggle and conflict. There’s a story behind every young face, just as there’s a story behind every piece of artwork."

Great opportunity for young NYC artists to show their work at the Bronx Museum by Bronx Museum Teen Council!

Check it out! Mullaly Bikepark, our 5-time Neighborhood Grants recipient based in the shadow of Yankee Stadium, was just featured in a photojournalism piece over on NPR! We are proud to be a small part of this grassroots organization's efforts and grateful to the Honorable Latoya Joyner of New York State Assembly and New York State Black, Puerto Rican, Hispanic, and Asian Legislative Caucus for her steadfast belief in the power of everyday New Yorkers to take ownership of surrounding communities and make it a better place for all residents!
