New Media & Arts Fellowship
651 ARTS, in collaboration with BOMB Magazine, is pleased to announce the launch of the Deutsche Bank New Media & Arts Fellowship — a new 651 ARTS education initiative for local high school students. The Fellowship is a 6-month program that gives young people access to professionals from all facets of the performing arts world. Along with multiple in-depth technology-based workshops taught by BOMB Magazine staff, the Fellows will be interacting with several accomplished performing arts professionals, experiencing live performance as journalists, and creating stories about these performances using new media technologies. The program interweaves education, production, documentation, marketing and community engagement efforts.
After an intensive application process, 14 students were chosen for the inaugural year from Urban Assembly School of Music and Art, Paul Robeson High School, Brooklyn Community Arts and Media High School, Williamsburg Preparatory High School and Health Professions and Human Services High School. The program is principally supported by Deutsche Bank and in part by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural affairs in partnership with the City Council and Councilmember Letitia James.
