Description: 
The Global Youth Media and Arts Program is an arts education program for youth ages 12-18 in New York and San Francisco.

Through the MAP youth use their own lives and communities as a platform to examine global themes such as Peace and Conflict, Immigration and Identity, and Power in Global Society using visual arts, performance and media. This program illuminates the connections between community and world affairs and helps young people learn to use art and media as tools for self-expression, dialogue, and community engagement.
