OUR IMPACT
At Veronica Arts Media, after-school participants are matched with our seasoned filmmaker teaching artist. Together, they craft narratives that amplify the voices of our youth, ensuring their stories resonate loud and clear.
We also equip students with technical skills, enhancing workforce readiness, and facilitate internship opportunities for our students. By doing so, we empower a diverse talent pool, fostering their preparedness for New York City's thriving $8 billion media industry.
AMPLIFYING UNHEARD VOICES.
In a city where a third of our youth face poverty and one in three lacks a mentor, we refuse to let a zip code define their potential.
CHAMPIONING INCLUSIVITY IN MEDIA.
In this industry, 7% of films are directed by women and 6% by people of color, the message sent to young individuals is clear: their stories, and by extension, themselves, matter little. We're here to change that narrative.
