For Teens/Young Adults
Too cool for school.
How’s the entrance gallery at The Warhol for a cool and provocative classroom space? Or how about sketching art on the floor of the Museum of Art’s awe-inspiring Hall of Architecture? We supply the material and the stimulating environment. The youth of the region do the rest in a batch of programs designed just for teens and young adults.
Attention girls who love science and math! Come hang, in person or online, with other girls age 11 - 17 through BrainCake, a program of the Girls, Math & Science Partnership at Carnegie Science Center. You'll hook up with the kinds of people and opportunities that can make your dreams happen. Whether you're looking for advice, ideas about a career, games to play, or somewhere new to hang out with friends, it's all here!
Get in on the behind-the-scenes learning! At Carnegie Museum of Natural History, you can learn how to help answer visitor questions - about dinosaurs, the Walton Hall of Ancient Egypt, Hall of African Wildlife, and more - by volunteering as a teen docent.
A Warhol original, The Weekend Factory is a collaborative environment tailored to investigating ideas about art and culture through hands-on experimentation. Design a postcard, vinyl record, or your own t-shirt. Open for all ages every Saturday.
The Warhol trains student assistants (ages 15 and above) who have a strong commitment to or interest in the arts to create a series of traditional and alternative publications: Urban Interview magazine inspired by Warhol’s Interview, and Youth Philosophy, an untraditional art zine with a multimedia insert. Check out other youth programming at The Warhol.
Carnegie Museum of Art wants to help young people develop their personal vision of the world through classes geared just for them. Check out the museum’s youth classes that include The Art Connection classes for kids in grades 5-9 and high school studio seminars for young adults in grades 10-12.
