Teens participate in the High School Video Workshop.
In this free, hands-on after-school program, students in grades 9–12 work with a teaching artist to explore video as an artistic medium. Students will use video as a form of personal expression and will work in small groups to create their own films. The class will explore how to use video in creative ways, from pre-production to developing camera techniques and, finally, editing. No prior experience necessary—beginners are welcome!
For information about upcoming opportunities for teens, subscribe to our School & Educator Programs eNews.
The High School Video Workshop Series is made possible, in part, through public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs and the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Kathy Hochul and the New York State Legislature.

Inspired by the exhibition Mood of the moment: Gaby Aghion and the house of Chloé, the Jewish Museum invites middle and high school students to submit original photographs that address the question: What does style mean to you?
Mood of the moment: Gaby Aghion and the house of Chloé is the first museum exhibition honoring the visionary Jewish entrepreneur Gaby Aghion and her legacy as the founder of the French fashion house Chloé. Aghion—born Gabriella Hanoka in Alexandria, Egypt—founded the brand Chloé in 1952 with the intent to offer modern, elegant garments that would free women from the rigid designs of the time. The show explores the label's 70-year history and highlights the fashion brand’s ability to maintain a unique voice while also adapting to different eras–from discontinuing the use of animal products in the late 1990s to more recently embracing sustainable practices in fashion.
What does style mean to you? Consider how the world, your community, your interests and values, might impact your idea of style. How can a photograph express these ideas?
Students may submit up to three distinct photographs. All images and content must be the student’s own original work and free from copyright restrictions. Winning photographs will be featured on the Jewish Museum's website and social media platforms. Winners will also receive a gift certificate to a photography retail store. Please use this form to submit your photograph by January 12, 2024.
